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

I saw an iPod nano commercial on tv last night

Doctor Duffy · 09-09-2005, 11:48 PM

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.

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.

Doctor Duffy · 09-10-2005, 11:25 AM

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.

Poseidon · 09-10-2005, 11:33 AM

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.

The ONLY advantage of the NANO over the REGULAR Ipod is that its not HD based anymore (which means no more waiting for songs to load up from start or from pause) -

Still I wouldnt get one - and DEFINITELY wouldnt get one solely for that reason. Ive seen people say they are going out to buy one even though they already have an iPod and I gotta ask "why" -

The MAIN gripe I had with the mini was that it was TOO damn small. . .I like being able to know I have something - not fucking around in my bag looking for something smaller than a box of matches. The only good thing about the smaller iPod is I dont have every damn song on there and actually have to choose what music I want to listen to for the day. Other than that - its pointless to me. Great product, but JOB's is seriously killing his market with over-saturation.

And the ROKR is supposed to be shit.

If I were going to get another Port Player - it would be the GIGABEAT.
