IPod Classic and Nano?

Question

IPod Classic and Nano?
I have a rd generation iPod Nano right now, but I am thinking of getting a new Classic, since my music library is getting huge. How different is the Classic from the Nano? I drop my Nano a lot, is the Classic less durable? Also, how much bigger is the screen?

Answer

The screen is larger, but not THAT much larger... not sure on actual dimensions.brbrThe biggest difference is that the Nano uses solid state storage where the classic uses a hard disk... battery life is less, storage is more.brbrStorage access may be a bit slower when shuffling or when browsing, but thats the tradeoff.brbrI have an G video and Im in the same boat. I cant decide between a GB nano smaller, better battery life, lighter and the GB classic enough storage for my entire collection, but larger and heavierbrbrThe real decider for you would be how you use it. the Classic is a bit smaller and lighter than my G video, but its still large, and youll notice it in your pocket. Ive dropped my Video a few times and never had a problem BUT Ive also had protective cases on it since day , I dont use it without a case BECAUSE I do drop it from time to time.brbrHope that helps...
