I am still partial to just listening to cds when I go to the gym or are in the car, but the new Nanos are pretty slick looking so it's tempting me. On the other hand, the video capability of the regular iPods is something I think I'd like as well. Unfortunately, I heard there are numerous problems with the hard drives on the video Ipods while there's battery problems with the nanos? I don't want to buy something if I will have problems with it in a year or less, if I buy one of these things I want it to last for years and years. Are these things not that durable? Also, if I go the video iPod route, isn't there a new generation coming out the first of 2007? So many questions I know, but I'd appreciate help from anyone knowledgeable about the ipods.

Buy the red iPod. Then a donation will be made to help aids in Africa.

The iPod is very easy to break. U sound like the iPod doesn't fit you. There's a lot of mp3 players out there. Check out the IriverClix. It uses FlashDrive, not HardDrive, so u got rid of lots of troubles. It has a lot of functions, including videos, too. It is more durable also, but i dont think it can last for long with excersising. So check out the ZenV, too. It's the most durable mp3 player i ever seen. The CEO of Creative threw it at the wall and it were still working properly. But it doesn't play video. And the photo function isn't very fast with a not-so-good screen. But it has a very beatiful style, very curvy and cute. Check both of them out. You can see them at http://reviews.cnet.com

Buy another MP3 player. ipods are not very reliable. I recommend the Creative Zen Micro

You should wait. With the holiday season coming, you will have more options as many companies usually release their new products around this time.
