Testing the iPod mini
The iPod and its battery life has been the subject of an unusual amount of scrutiny these past few months (we won't get into it), but anyone buying an iPod mini can set their mind at ease, at least partially. iPod Lounge has been testing the new player for more than week and found that after charging it a few times, the iPod mini not only matches the eight hours of playing time that Apple says it has, in some cases it actually exceed that time by almost two hours.
