The reason I prefer the ipod is its syncing abilities. When I plug it in, any new media gets sent to the ipod. The sync also works in reverse. If I'm listening to a book or podcast, I can sync the ipod, and then if I want to continue listening on the computer, it's at the place where I left off on the ipod. I have an airport express with airtunes, which is hooked up to a stereo. As a result, I do a lot of listening both on the ipod, and on the computer, so the syncing is important to me. To me this is worth having a device that doesn't talk.

I concur with what others have said.  I have an 80GB iPod Classic that
works quite well.  It doesn't take long to master, only a little bit
of patience.

I have a 5.5 generation 30 gig ipod, and find it quite usable.  The
menus don't wrap around, and it does click as you move through
things.  If you know your itunes library, it's quite easy to master.

Hey guys,
What's the scoop on the ipods.  Are any of them even usable other
than the ipod shuffle?  Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jed
