I'm sure its out there somewhere though.
Also dont forget the radio on the iRiver, wma support, better windows support, no extra purchases (docks etc)
iPod does, IIRC have firewire support which makes copying a but faster so thats a plus for them. They are both great Mp3 players. If I was in the market now, with Apples price drop, it would be a tough choice, but I still would probly go with the iRiver to save money. Its a toss up though.
