most likely you are jealous of the people who have ipods, and you spent $300 on something that will last you a year or two. -------------

| Heh. I'm getting a Zen Touch from Creative. It's the same as an iPod, but with better interface (in my opinion). |

You know there IS other mp3 players that are better than the ipod. And maybe some people prefer another company. I couldnt be happier with my Creative Labs muvo 2 4 gb. I have just about 400 songs and it only takes up 1.5 gb. I still have froom for another 2.5, thats easily 1000 songs. And it only cost 150! So why spend 250 for the same thing with a different name and design? -------------

yeah, its ipods low cost solution to people who want ipods. it's gunna be a music player with flash memory instead of a hard drive. heres a link to the article: http://www.reuters.com/audi/newsArticle.jhtml?type=technologyNews&storyID=7128835 - http://www.reuters.com/audi/newsArticle.jhtml?type=technolog yNews&storyID=7128835 here's the leaked content: http://www.themacmind.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=618 - http://www.themacmind.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Ne ws&file=article&sid=618 -------------

when you buy an ipod you pay for quality. people always think that cheaper is better. not the case for mp3 players. ipods are made with quality parts. im not saying that other mp3 players are bad, i think that they can play music just as well as the ipod. the only difference i see is the amount of time they last. i see alot of ipod owners that still use their generation 1 ipods. and its not like i worship the ipods. i dont like the ipod mini. i think a $300 20gb ipod is better than $250 for a 4gb ipod. for only $50 you get 16gb. with all the new price cutting in LCD screens the ipod photo may soon be in the $300 price range. -------------

Minis are flash mem.. Thier all just MP3 players. They do the same thing. Personally I would get the iPod anyway because Apple is a bomb company IMO |

Same. It also has a 24 hour battery life, and better sound. In your face apple! -------------

iPods are such a waste...
you can get practically the same thing from Creative Labs for half the cost. Apple and Creative Labs both make outstanding audio equipment, but Apple is definitley not twice as good... -------------

The only thing that bugs me about iPods is the OS requirments. If
I want it I need to get either Windows 2000, or XP, it doesnt support
ME.
