I love this iPod
I bought this at the same time as a newer 4th generation iPod nano. It is every bit as good and I am kicking myself for spending $50 more for the other one! The screen is crystal clear, and the sound quality is excellent. It is easy to use and the compact size is very convenient. I highly reccomend this product.

IPOD
I love my new IPOD- the only complaint was I had to figure out how to work it by trial and error. A few more directions would have been nice.

Unsatisfied
I purchased this product for my son for Christmas, he turned the device on and back off that morning. The very next day we tried to download music, the screen was black. It never turned back on. we never got the chance to use the product. I am very upset and my son is extremely dissappointed. I have returned the item, but the funds still have not been returned to my account.

Better size than 4th gen
I bought this for my husband for Christmas. He's training for a marathon, and he's making use of the Nike website for runners--tracking his runs on his iPod. He was using a 2nd gen Nano, but he needed a newer one with more memory. He also didn't like the long, thin shape of the old Nano, which is similar to the shape of the newest Nano (4th gen). We were both happy to discover that we could still buy a new 3rd gen Nano through Amazon.

I think Apple needs to reconsider the size and shape of the iPod Nano when designing the next generation. The square 3rd gen fits more easily into pockets, armbands, etc. for people who use their iPods during athletic conditioning.
