Arriving in a small white cubic box, the iPod mini says, “Hey, open my box and get me out!” Apple specializes in ensuring wonderful consumer experiences since the minute the product box is unsealed. The gorgeous little box unfolds into two parts: one contains the manual, installation CD, FireWire and USB 2.0 cables, and the belt clip; while the other holds the iPod mini and the power adapter. For Mac users, the AC power adapter is an extra bonus since the iPod mini can recharge itself from any Mac computer it is connected to.

 

The iPod mini

We can almost bet the first word that anyone who opens the box would say is “wow!” It is so much prettier when viewed in person that you realize none of the ad pictures do it justice. The iPod mini clearly lives up to its name: it is small - about the size of a business card and half an inch thick - and fits the palm perfectly like a glove. The metallic green aluminum tube-shaped casing feels extremely solid and comfortably cool in the hand. The 3.6-ounce iPod mini really makes third generation iPods look and feel bulky. About the size of a small cell phone, the iPod mini is so light you might forget you put it in your pocket. With the optional armband accessory Apple is selling, the mini is perfect for all those active people who like to do exercises or go jogging.
