I'm no technological genius, but I knew enough that when the first I Pod came out and all the chachi preppy suburbanite kids wanted to buy this white brick that stored 5 songs for $300, it would be wise to wait just a bit. For memory has a tendency to drop rather quickly. And if I just waited 5 years I could get a phone/memory stick/MP3/WMV/nuclear missile launcher/lightsaber/player for 30 cents as the price of memory came down.
Well, the light saber option hasn't been added yet, so I broke down and dropped $30 on my first I-Pod clone. Holds 40 songs. The merits of being patient and frugal.

dude, you're behind on your daily babe responsibilities. babes or charts, get your freakin priorities straight.
Maybe if he would have bought an iPod 5 years ago he'd have a babe! Nobody wants a guy with a $30 iPod knock off.
iPods tend to be better than the rip off ones - they tend to be much easier to use with less bugs. I got a mate who bought a JNC 20gig thing that cost less than a 4gig ipod mini at the time of purchase, but it's a buggy and slow piece of junk. Oh, and yeah - they can run linux too :) ipodlinux.org/Screenshots
I got one, but i wouldn't pay for one that's for sure - that's what a large accumulation of credit card points are for :)
