i have an ipod nano and i had it 3 days and it broke, they also have a problem of getting scratched very easily. my bloke has a normal ipod and its great, my kids have a shuffle wich are perfect for someone who doesn't have alot of money or music.
I've actually changed my mind yet again and decided on the Phillips GoGear Jukebox. http://www.consumer.philips.com/con...ype=CONSUMER&productId=HDD6320_05_GB_CONSUMER It's 30 GB, has a lovely TFT colour screen, and I can use Windows Media Player to sync. Which makes things a lot easier for me.
HELLO. DELL DJ. it's not even on the list...:'( actually i love it. dell is like one of my favorite companies, because they have such good customer service. i broke my dell dj and sent it in, because it was covered by the 1 year warranty, and the new one has a new 1-year warranty. it comes with plays-for-sure, and plays all kinds of filetypes that won't even work with my hundreds of codecs on the computer. and i don't know if you can do this with anything else, but it has a data thing too, so it's like a mini external harddrive. firmware updates and stuff are there. it transfers the license from the computer to the dell dj to the new computer, and you can also go back and forth from the computer to the dell dj with the songs. they say you can't do that, but i figured out how when i got a new computer and had to transfer my songs. and if you have good credit, you pay like 7 dollars a month for it. and of course, it runs on windows. much better than a mac. the buttons are simple, back, forward, blahblahblah, nothing like the ipod. it's made by creative technologies. i love it, can't wait for generation 3 to come out. and now i'm done.
... Dell ... favourite company ... such good customer support ... no problems replacing it ... ... mmkay, you really are messed in the head.
