I finally broke down and ordered myself a 40GB Ipod, I had toyed with the idea of waiting around for the 60GB… but couldn’t wait any longer. Chances are the 60GB might be larger and I like the smaller sized devices, so I did not want to wait any longer. (And even though I have more than 40GB of music I don’t think I really need to carry it everywhere with me)
Why not go with any of the other devices? I looked at the Creative device and it was just too large and the interface was pretty crappy. The Dell had a crappy interface too, and the tragic flaw that you can’t copy stuff back from the device to your system. The only real competition was the iRiver which is pretty close in features to the Ipod and then it came down to the interface, I like the scroll of the Ipod better than the little joystick thing on the iRiver.

You have the iPod, so when are you getting the BMW to go with it?
The 60gig model will not be physically larger than the normal iPod. The reason Apple is getting into higher density iPods in because the comepany making the mini HDs for them (I forget the name off hand) has been creating higher density drives. Expect that company to have a 100gig drive by xmas although a suitible iPod may not come out for another year, if at all.
I have my doubts about that… the current 20GB is smaller than the 40GB, yet they use the same type of hard drive. (Toshiba I think)
