Fixed.
Digital EQ has never, ever compared to a real equalizer. My 80 gig iPod Video has the same problem. It's not a big enough annoyance so I usually just ignore it.

The first gen Nanos are seriously invincible. I have one; got it two years ago and since then:
-I have completely soaked it twice (by leaving it in my purse, and leaving the purse in the rain)
-I drop it.......well, most of the times I use it. Which is often outside. On concrete sidewalks.
-I've run it pretty much constantly.
It's very very scratched, obviously, but I've only ever had to hard reset once; after the first soaking, I had to let it dry out for a day before it worked again. Other than that, NO PROBLEMS. It's unbelievable. I'm clumsy and careless....a small electronic device should have no chance. Bass? I have a decent set of big, ear-muff type headphones and I've always thought it was fine.
I was given it as a Christmas gift though, so that's why I have an iPod...left to my own devices, I probably would've chosen one of the Creative models. That being said, I'm a pretty pleased Apple customer too.

So you want like, 10 uncompressed CDs on an 80gig ipod? maybe 10 minutes of raw video? There is no such thing as lossless. Digital is lossy by its very functionality. you want what? ogg support? Pick your battles, your argument is weak against the entire concept of a "MP3 PLAYER"

I'm sorry to be pedantic here, really sorry infact. I hope it doesn't seem like I'm picking at scabs just to make them bleed, because that certainly isn't what I'm doing, and I really hope that it doesn't seem like I'm trying to start an argument or something, I wouldn't usually behave like this, because we actually hate pedants here, even put them in the stocks and pelt them with fruit, but...
My screen name is Spinless. No 'e'.
Good day to you. sir Statik with a 'kay'!

See, problem is though that the sound on my Walkman phone is better. I am merely expecting a premium soundgadget to have better sound than a phone.
E. Spaceman:
for some reason my ipod has taken to putting out music at such an incredibly low volume. I remember when I forst got it, listening to the thing with the full volume was painful, but now it is the only way i can get a semi decent sound out of it. The headphones put out volume fine through the little holes on the back but on the main earphone thing it is really quiet. Probably the (ugly) headphones though.
