I would like to get one, but are they worth it? I don't want anything expensive.

Reviews don't look too great, but people are hell bent on the thing being a little thick.. Thats not my concern.
I know a guy who actually owns one and he is always ravin about it. | |

Haven't heard of it. I picked up a 2GB Samsung mp3 player last week, then took it back a few days later. I'm not crazy about the sound quality on these things, I guess I'm used to listening to music on headphones through my computer, which sounds much better. The mp3 players just sound weak for some reason. Are they all like that? | |

Get an iPod.. I work for an audiologist, and he has a PHD in hearing sciences.. and he developed aviation/headsets.. and I let him hear my iPod, and he couldn't believe the amplifier thats on that system. it really is impressive, despite all the hype | |

I know a guy who actually owns one and he is always ravin about it. I'd really like to know how you make out with this. I love getting gadgets. Some time ago when Pocket PCs were taking off, I thought I wanted one of those. I got one and it was cool enough at first. I thought I could take it to college with me and what not, thought I could do all this computing stuff with it. I never got away from the keyboard and mouse thingy. That stylest was kind of anoying. It had no internet access. So I am a little burned out on the whole thing. I ended up putting the pocket pc on the shelf and taking the laptop to school. I hate hype. Let me know.

Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |
