Q：もちろんiPodをご愛用なさってると思うのでお伺いしたいのですが、ビデオ画面は鑑賞に耐えうるものですか？
小さいから飛行機の中に持ち込んだりするのにノートブックより便利かなとは思うんですが、画面が小さすぎて鑑賞にならないのでは？とも思ったり。。。
A:え〜っと、Video iPodは仕事用に大学から供給された物を使っております。5th Generationというヤツで今より一つ前の形です．
鑑賞はできません。スクリーンが小さすぎます。（ここでいう鑑賞とは映画の色やその他の細かい物も見ることができるということです。）
でも、ふつうに映画を＊見る＊ことはできますよ。飛行機でも車/電車/バスの車内でも使ってます。あとは、VIDEO IPODをテレビにつなぐこともできるんですよ。それで、IPODにビデオをダウンロードしてテレビで見たりもしてます．
コンピュータのクイックタイムかなんかで320X240のサイズで映画をみるのと一緒です。今度それで試してみればどれだけ小さいかよくわかると思います．
でもやっぱり鑑賞するんだったら映画館のスクリーンですね。
