I have never owned an iPod but I will eventally. I'm almost certain that a new iPod will be coming out for the holiday season because they always do and the current iPod video prices are dropping. Is it worth the wait for the next iPod which could be really expensive ? Or should I just go for the iPod video right now while the prices are like $150-$200 on Ebay ?? I would like the next iPod, but I'm guessing that it's gonna be atleast $500, what should I do ?

You can wait, because prices might drop even further in the future. The only problem then would be whether Apple would discontinue the iPod model. Then again, if a new iPod is released during the holiday season, there might even be a lower price due to Christmas holiday sales... or, after some wait, Boxing Day sales...

what should you do?, you should NOT get an iPod, they are ****, when i saved three hundred dollars i bought an iPod 20GB video and it was very dissapointing, i returned it and got this http://www.creative.com/products/mp3/zen... best choice i ever made, iPods become vegetables after about a year, a zen will last forever. iPods dont play WMAs while the zen does, WMAs take half as much memory as MP3s. so yes the zen holds twice as much as an iPod, plus it comes with more memory for less money, its alot more then twice as much. plus creative doesn't force you to use itunes. you can just open the "my computer" window and drag and drop any file you want and the zen will play it flawlessly. when i had an iPod, there was always something wrong with it, almost none of my files were compatible, you have to buy multiple expensive programs to make some files compatible. and plus the customer service ignores you when you call. the zen also has FM radio while the iPod doesn't. the creative customer service is great, not that i've ever had to call for this product. customer service from apple just constantly tells you to buy more and more programs by quicktime, it never ends and you just fork over more and mroe money. for a product you will have to replace in a few months. apple sucks, get a creative.

You could try ebay but you gotta make sure someones not selling you a bad one. The prices wont drop on the ipods, but if you wait a few months i think they might be coming out wiht a new ipod where the whole thing is a touch screen. Ipods save lots of time and now you got the video, buy one

NO, DO NOT BUY ON EBAY. the next ipod will be $200-$400. the new ipod will not be out for the holiday season, it will be out early (first quarter) next year

I think you should wait because you might regret it when the new one comes out (they're supposed to have a new one each year). If you're not interested in the new one, get the video they'll be even cheaper then.
