ipods can't play gapless music. and therefore they suck. only chuffers or people who don't listen to 1)live music 2)dj sets 3)cds with tracks blended together should get those expensive little beasties.

Do they have a 100GB iPod yet? I'm up to around 72GB at this point...

I haven't looked at it too closely, but supposedly with the move to supporting podcasting, there is a way to identify 'subtracks' within a file - thus allowing gapless playback
and a way to navigate within that 4 hr long '83 Dead recording from the show at Red Rocks (like, uh, not the April show, but when they came back in October, cus, uh, like the vibe they had was waaaaayyy different at that show.)

Update, I went to the mac store in cinci and they looked up the serial number, asked if I was Andrew and gave me a new/refurbished one. All this happened in less than 10 minutes. Ipods rock, yea!!

Really?
Manage your music and it will play anything.....
Up to 96GB on my external drive and I got
a ton of live shows, including electronica (the plugins ain't that hard to find). My 2nd generation 40gb Precious is kicking w/ 23mb free. I delete and add unproduced, mic tree in the audience tunes on a monthly basis.
It's a poor worker that blames his tools.

Did they transfer your music and stuff to the new one for you or did you have to refill it?

do they still suck?
Jill and I are thinking about a Shuffle and a Nano for music needs this Christmas. Couple of issues I've seen so far...
Price.
Can't find a FM modulator / 12V power supply that works with both models.
Would Nano skip on trail runs?
Really would like to see these models person...hard to do this time of year.
