If you dont care about slimness ect, get an archos, like 80 gig models, wifi, can get a browser for like 20$ theyre cheaper and better than ipods... or I would get a Zune, personally I hate Ipods cuz you cant put music directly on it, which is extremely gay...

 

[Shidizzm]

I'd pick the iPod classic.

I pod classic, you need the gigidge

 

[Billyy]

I'd say get the 60, or 80 Gb iPod Video. I have a 30 Gb iPod video and I love it.

The problem about Ipod is that you need a program like iTunes to get music to which is kinda gay.

How about your local Dick Smith's Electronics? They should sell Zunes, cos they sell most types of iPod.

X9, I don't really watch when the newgen devices come out, so meh. One thing that is interesting though, is if Microsoft can put that technology easily in to a 5 year old palmtop (yes, my dad owned one with internet explorer), how can they not put it in to a device with the newest technology?

Because the Zune is marketed simple as a music player. Not an all-in-one device like the iPod touch.

We're still working on it dumbass, and you seriously need better things to do then to spy on other forums in your free time, besides, even if you don't like the Zune, it has everything the ipod has and more...for the same price. It doesn't matter if you're a fanboy or not you have to admit that.

Name "more".

I don't spy either, I just talk to people who peer around every now and then.

Ya but seriously, name the "more features". As x9 said, the Zune is a simple media player. It depends on what you like. I'd buy a PDA if the iPod Touch weren't an AIO device with the functionality of a PDA.

And you also have yet to explain why iPods are for fags.

G'day.
