ok, i want to make this as emphatic as possible: i enjoy this thing more than anything else i do, or ever have, posessed. it's beautifully designed, beautifully implemented, beautifully everything. it's not a fashion thing -- it's just great to have so much beautiful music on a beautiful machine beautifully available to you all the beautiful time. it doesn't make me happy when i'm sad, but it lets you soundtrack your life to maximum poignancy. i've had it since last october (i.e., 9 months or so) and i've dropped it several times. nothing, absolutely nothing happened to it except a few surface nicks. battery life is still great, and i use it ALL the time. i don't care about how much other players cost. it was worth every penny i paid, and that's all i care about.

i bought a creative zen xtra 60gb and all i can say is - don't go near them. they're right fucks.. unless you enjoy taking it apart every few days and fixing the headphone socket and reassembling it eventually breaking the fucking thing :S

sorry to hear that redrum. A PC friend of mine was telling my girldfriend how the iPods are all hype and the Creative ones are far superior. It took me a while to convince her that that was crap, but I'll never convince him. He loves tinkering about with his gigantic pile components (aka his computer) so obviously he wouldn't like the iPod. It just works, i.e. it wouldn't be any fun for him if he couldn't take it apart every now and again.
