    Exactly. I don't care about the size (it's still smaller than a cd player) as most of my clothes don't have pockets! Today's fashion is a bit weird, ain't it? I have to carry my player in a bag anyway... I have a cd/mp3 player (iriver imp 550) so changing it for a small flash or hd one doesn't make sense - the most you can get is 1GB - a bit more than 1 CD. Taking one more cd with me (and that's already more than 1,5 gb) doesn't take much more space

    40 gigs means:
    - forgetting about recording or copying anything from comp
    - no more rubish on my comps hd - all music goes straight onto player!
    - all my music available anytime. I'm a bit strange as I never know what I would like to listen to during the day - I love to be able to put on exactly what I'm in a mood for. With 1gb it's simply impossible.

    And the sweet little thingy costs about $670... :cry: I was wondering about ipod photo 60gb, which is suprisingly a bit cheaper, but I heard a couple of opinions that iriver is better and has more features and gadgets...

      40GB isn't that much when you collect DJ sets. I must have 70-80GB on my hard disc and my IRiver H-140 has been full for awhile.

      I want to upgrade whenever they start making 120GB mini drives, (which i'm sure will be by next year)

        ubige for some one like u i can understand needing an iriver.. i get by with my 5GB zen...its small and light and holds a good 1100 songs so its all good for me.. anything bigger than a mini ipod is too big for me..

        i do like the irivers but there just too big..they need a mini iriver..

          I know there is a 40GIG Ipod now that is selling for $399, but that is stil way too expensive for me. I'll wait another year or so before buying one. By then the prices should have gone down a lot more.

            i know this sounds corny, but iriver also has a recorder, which i use to record lectures. and prob the best thing about iriver is the lack of all these attachments you have to get just to connect to something. you get everything when you get your iriver. so no accessories to buy. plus the customer care is a whole lot nicer. i drenched mine at an outdoor party and broke it. they replaced it without question.

              well they came out with a new teeny tiny shuffle 512mb > right up your alley



              me I like balls in my mp3 player I need unlimited choices throughout my day... I'm about to up the ante here when the next gen of real ipods comes out, hopefully they have like an 80-100 gig'er in the works

                That's what the guy at iriver store told me too - when you buy their products you've got everything there. certainly a +
