Is the 5th Generation Ipod worth buying?

The answer is a resounding...YES! I bought the 5th Gen ipod the day it was released here in the Philippines. The video camera is its main feature that really captivates me. Here is the unboxing of my new ipod.

It has no still camera only video cam. The ipod is so lightweight. The video resolution is 640x480 at 30fps. Imagine that! The resolution and quality of the video is good considering its small size. Here is the sample video taken from ipod nano:

The quality is almost the same though the actual footage taken from nano is much better and the resolution is higher which is 640x480.

If you're planning to buy one and having doubts since you already have the previous model(s), I'd say go get the new one. It's worth it. I have the 3rd Gen Ipod nano but I didn't buy the 4th Gen since there is no revolutionary feature. But with the 5th Gen, the video is so good and it has built-in speaker too so you and your friends could watch your videos at the same time without the need for earphones.

Don't delay it, go purchase N-O-W. Why? If after 2 months and suddenly you realized you want the 5th Gen Ipod Nano, and the 6th Gen would be launched next year, then it means you would have to enjoy your ipod for only few months. Dude, it's Apple. Every year, new model...time to upgrade! So, in general, to enjoy your Ipod or any other Apple products, once there's a new model, go buy it... ASAP!
