By reader request, iLounge today debuted the first of several new features planned for our Reviews section: “Sort by ratings and categories.” Found at the top of our Sort by Category Reviews Index page, this new tool is the equivalent of the Report Cards published in our Free iPod Books and Buyers’ Guides, but updated in real time. The simple pull-down menu lets you immediately see the top-rated products in any category of iPods or accessories we have reviewed. With over 900 products now reviewed on the site, and over 1,300 in our larger accessories database, this our goal is to help you quickly sort out top-rated products from the not-so-good ones.
Please note that the feature is approximately 90% complete, with several handfuls of products (including a number of lower-rated ones) still yet to be added. We intend to make sure that all of our reviews are searchable via the system by the end of the week. Enjoy!

I would rather you sort by iPod generation. For people like myself, with a 1G/2G non-dock iPod, it’s getting harder and harder to find things that are relevant to our model of iPod.
As it is now, I have to pick a category, and then sort through it to find the reviews that pertain to a non-dock iPod. Since they’re rare, it’s hard to find the reviews that are for the older models amidst dozens of other reviews.
Simply categorizing reviews by generation might make it easier for us… Not just for 1G/2G owners, but for shuffle and mini users as well.
Not all of us came into our older/odd model iPod when they were first released!
