Ignorant or not, that's definitely not a word. Sweet sweet irony.

I saw an iPod nano commercial on tv last night

Yeah, the Shuffles been pretty cool to me.

I dont waste months of saving to buy some advanced harware like you geekwads, but I dont like being cheap either. The Shuffle was such a great deal at the time - all the other mp3 players were near the 100's, and only had 128mb or whatever of memory, which plain out sucks.

The screen on mp3 players is a plus, it isnt essential. When I used my CD player I never looked at the screen, and while I thought it would be cool to take my mp3 player out of my pocket and see the name of the song, it really wasnt worth it to be to blow $400 bucks on.

I dont even have to flip it out to swtich the song, I usually leave it on my pocket and feel it on the outside of my jeans, and press the button I want. The buttons are so simple, you can be blind and operate them. And its 733t to just plug it into your computah. My last mp3 player I lost the cord for - but that was a cheap one.

Tomorrow I will tell you my life story.

I need an mp3 player that has long battery life per charge, that is priority number 1. This mp3 player will be used on hikes in excess of 3 days and i need music to fill in hours when i cannot cross terrain, or read books. How long can i expect an ipod nano to last? honestly i dont care if a song repeats or some shit, i need max bettery life and durability.

Uh..... I dont think you want an iPod for hiking. You'd probably freak if it fell. I've been jogging (Im not a yuppie, its for cross-country) with my Shuffle (I just take a thick, loose rubber band and wrap it around my hand with the Shuf. - no need for a $30 cloth band) and its fell more than twice. And I freaked when it did. You dont want that thing to get scratched.

Get the new ipod with the color screen it has like a 17 hour battery life, mine has a 10 hour one, i bought my 20 gig and a month later the color screen ones came out...fuck life....

Just get this case for it misc http://www.speckproducts.com/toughskin.html

I have one for when i goto drill with the Marines, works beautifully, if you drop it, it wont break.

fuck ipods (ok, I'm just trying to start something...sorry. I'll shut up now.)

i rarely use my Ipod...

the zen comes with two batteries ... if i remeber correctly the charge time is pretty damn long too ... id say with both of those bats charged they would last you 3 days.

i dunno if the ipod would last 3 days or not ... i guess it just depends on how long you listen.

The new iPod Nano. Buy it. Period. Short. Sentences. Stop. Plz.

I love my Shuffle, but hate Apple at the same time. They're all a bunch of fags IMHO, yuppies for all I care. I absolutely hate how they turned their white computes into a literal cult.

Dont go for ipod if you want good battery life. My Zen Touch battery lasts about 24hours

It has 1 less gig but oh well. Like i said if a song repeats oh well. That 50 hour battery life means i could listen to it nearly non stop. See this is how i end up torn on what to buy.

Also why the fuck would i drop it? I wouldnt be holding it, it would be in my ruck with the cords out. So theres no real problem with it falling.
