Thanks god!  That's good advice! Since I've got you on the horn here:Are you still against shrimp and homos? Just wondering since I really think there's nothing like a good scampi served with a swish, but I'll abstain out of respect... |

I put 10 hours of music on mine on Sunday and it's good for a week of commuting without repeating a song. (256MB internal plus 256MB on SD card.) If I'm touring or traveling, one of the things I'm doing is visiting used CD stores and seeking out interesting local music, and bands are always selling their CDs at shows. An iPod would be of no use. Meanwhile, I can travel with 10GB of MP3s on CD along with a $40 player and not worry about a $400 device being lost or stolen, and I can buy new music without needing a computer. RichC |
