I had the 4th gen iPod for the longest time. Then about 2 weeks ago, I upgraded. My mom was wanting one so she got the video, but she had no use for the video feature so I traded her so I could use the Pod to its fullest capabilities. I must say it is pretty cool.
But the video features... right now, I'm going to be honest, it's a pretty overrated feature (unless you're buying it simply for music videos). But it is cool just have some extra video on the iPod (some music videos, short films and video podcasts). The problem is it sucks the life out of it to keep the video backlight on while it plays. The battery only last a few hours if you do that.
Definately an upgrade, but I think it will be worth the money once iTunes utilizes the feature to the fullest. Some more TV shows would be nice or even teaming up with ifilm or Atomfilms.
