Goggle Earth Review I've wanted to try a truly personal video system - forgot the clunky VR headsets of yesteryear - since I first saw one faked up on Blake's 7 in the late 1970s. Watching a movie on an iPod means holding the player up to your face for hours at a time. It would be so much better to clip on a pair of video specs, sit back and relax...â¦

Inspiring students to practice regularly may not be an easy assignment for any music teacher, but Sarah Grenier found iPod, her MacBook, and iLife to be excellent motivators. Grenier records student performances on a digital camcorder, edits the footage in iMovie, then burns the finished video using iDVD so that students can enjoyâand critiqueâtheir own performances and share their progress with parents, staff, and other students. Like to hear how she uses iPod in the classroom?

Dan Frakes  likes what he sees. âThe screen makes it clearâno pun intendedâthat the design is a winner.â Awarding iPod nano 4.5 (out of five) stars, he points out that âmenu text is clearer and easier to read than it was with the previous model. And even though this is the smallest video-playing screen Iâve used, after watching a 90-minute movie on the nano I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. Picture quality is comparable to that of the iPhone, just smaller.â âEssentially a miniaturized version of the iPod classic available for as little as $149,â iPod nano offers âall the same features and capabilities including video playback and output.â
