WHY WHY WHY is this IPOD not more user friendly

yay yayOG 2004 ·

The UI for ipod is terrible IMHO

actually, the UI on the iPod is my favorite part. I think the click wheel is just about the best invention ever. And the menus are organized very logically. And I love how you can make on-the-go-playlists. I think it's great

it's really good once you get used to it, but for a non-computer person i could see it being almost impossible to understand.

I'm psyched cuz i JUST figured out how to hook up my ipod directly thru my car stereo system, without the crappy radio frequency thing, plugs right into my EQ

he has an aftermarket Equalizer that takes RCA stereo. He got the mini stereo (1/8th inch) to RCA stereo converter, and the right wires. :D

thats funny you say that matt. i am computer illiterate (it took me over a year to figure out how to operate ians ftp...and i was constantly working towards it, night and day, 24/7) but i totally get the ipod and itunes too, for the most part. like i have no idea what this EQ and UI and RCA stuff means, but i could definately show you how to hook up the pod and play with it. :)

Ok click wheel is good stuff. But I need a more web browser type, like with a back button, or up. I don't know its just not intuitive, it might be great, but the 2 times in the last year I've even touched Kamila's I got so frustrated.

the Menu button goes up, or back.
