Review title: Not Worth the Price Product review: Apple Computers should be ashamed of themselves. I received my 40 GB ipod as a 2004 Christmas present and the problems began after only 6 months. Though I sould say, I really loved my ipod before it crapped out on me. I see a lot of other customers have had similar trouble with this thing and I just want to cast my vote of disapproval. The problems are: The computer/itunes not recognizing the ipod. The hard drive spinning up but never starting. The hard drive crashing and losing all data resulting in having to reset the ipod to factory settings and reinstalling the software and after all that having the same problem happen again.After hearing all the horror stories about Apple's customer service I figure it's not worth trying to repair. Since this model has been discontinued, there's no point in telling people not to buy it now. I only hope that the new ipods are better. I'll be reading the reviews very carefully if and when I decide to get another ipod. Live and learn.

Review title: Transformers: Energon Mini Cons: - The Energon Saber Team Product review: Back in Transformers: Armada, a set of Mini-Con warriors was released. These were the "Air Defense Team" - a group of three miniature Transformers who, in addition to converting from aerial vehicles to robots and back, could combine to form the Star Sabre Sword. This powerful weapon played an integral part in the Transformers: Armada cartoon series. Now, with Armada's sequel Transformers: Energon comes a repainted and remolded version of the Star Sabre set. This time, the Mini-Cons combine to form the translucent yellow Energon Saber Sword, which can be used by the larger Transformers. In addition, the Mini-Cons themselves are great toys with excellent play value, converting from jet planes/space shuttles to robots and back. This fun set is a definite great value!
