Buy an ipod?!?
SOMEONE hasn't done their proper electronics shopping...
buy an ipod, and you'll spend a lot more than you should for a piece of electronics that is "locked in" to proprietary file formats.
Plus I always hate myself when I spend WAAAAAY too much on any item. Ipods are SO severly overpriced that I think I'd actually shoot myself for such a foolish waste of money.
(Note to those who have NOT bought an ipod yet - look at ARCHOS models instead, and get twice the features for half the price - plus a better warranty that is actually honored by the manufacturer... and you can use almost any file format you want in the Archos models. Oh, and you can get a video player with almost twice the storage space for the same price ipod gets for a non-video player with half the storage space.)
Just FYI. Not intended to get anyone rialed up.
Do the research for yourself and you'll see just how bad apple is raping you when you buy an ipod.
