PC Mag have a review of this ipod the Video Ipod generation 5.5

The latest full-size iPod can be considered generation 5.5, since the interface and design improvements aren't nearly as drastic as they were from generation 4 to 5. The new model comes in 30GB and an ultra-roomy 80GB capacity. With the exception of the brighter screen, all the enhancements are in the firmware, including gapless playback, a new search feature, and support for better games (solitaire and Brick were getting pretty stale). And although the second-gen iPod nano now comes in a variety of colors, the full-size model is still limited to just black or white.

Not a lot has changed from the 30GB Video Ipod however theres over twice the storage capacity.

CNET had this to say about the Video Ipod 80GB

The amazingly low priced updated Apple iPod gets many under-the-hood improvements, but it's still not a true video player.
