I had one of those from buy.com (which owns woot) and the hold switch was
broken when I got it. The battery life was very poor, too.
I returned it and luckily, they were out, so they issued a refund.
It is possible, as I have demonstrated. What more do you want?
Quieter Metro trains?
Walking down the street is hardly the place to appreciate quality audio.
A really good set of headphones would probably block out so much of the
environment that I would get hit by a truck.
But I don't want

I too a look online and Palm Life Drives are going for a bout $100 on Ebay.
Not bad.

I got a new surplus Palm Tungsten C for around that much and I like it
very much.

I had hoped the Sansa would be a viable alternative to an iPod -
it wasn't, very sad.
I have been looking at Sansas and saw someone with a nice one on the
Metro this last week. Please share before I make another sad mistake.
P.S. Amazon took back the Coby for a full refund, but I don;t want to

I don't know. They claim 25,000 applications available through their App
Store. I know some of the things you list are available, but I don't
track iApps. Why don't you shop the store and try out possibilities in
your Safari web browser?

No. I'm no longer an audiophile. I'll be listening to MP3s and PodCasts.

Sad. But your options have improved if you no longer value quality.
Has too much interaction with WFBs made me impervious to quality?
It is not necessary to listen to crap when you have the option not to.
I don't think a portable player is about quality. It is about listening
to programming
In high-end audio, as far as headphones, there aren't that many players.
AKG, Beyer, Denon, Grado, Sennheiser, STAX.
That's basically it. I may have missed a few.
Headphones are a most bang for the buck product assuming that
you don't need speakers. A preamp or a dedicated headphone amp
will

No, but your insistence on categorization has definitely hurt your

Then you need to reevaluate your estimations, sir.

If I have to I will.
Verizon is changing the way they price plans and how the devices work
on the plans.
My son wanted a new phone and purchased it off Ebay.
Turns out the new phone will only work with one of their new
plans. (Their rules not mine) So I had to change plans, problem is

This is one of the best reasons for ALL U.S. mobile phone carriers to
switch to GSM. With Verizon and Sprint, if you change to another carrier
or plan, you often must buy a new phone. When Cavan bought an iPhone
from ATT, he unlocked his Sony-Ericsson phone and gave it to me to use
with
GSM down here sucks. T-Mobile, ATT and others just do not have the
coverage I need. (Would be great but just not feasible.)
I have looked at a few of the WIFI phones but they are not that
great, and again the newer ones are fine but Verizon will require a

What happened? Does the iPod Touch not work as a flash drive on
unauthorized Macs? Does it have to be jailbroken? Can I transfer the
video via WiFi?
The Touch does not come with the ability to mount the drive on a
computer. That's rotten and Apple has not been criticized enough over
this
I have a piece of software called Tune Ranger that allows you to pull tracks
off an iPod. It works well enough and it works on PC and Mac.

This is tricky, Betty! What they told me when I bought my iPod is that
