    Can you get Traffic in 50 cities thats live? NO! Can you get live Weather from the Weather Channel? NO! How bout 3 channels playing Comedy of various types at any given moment? Huh?! Hows that for On Demand!?

      I dont need an mp3 player its called the CD player in my car. If I go on vacation or something, the CD player I have had for over 4 years is still kicking and im way to cheap to buy a new one.


      Also with like a 40GB Ipod or like a 20GB, when the hell am I gonna use 10,000 songs or 5,000? I listen to very few artists, if I want something, I download it and burn it. I rarely even buy CDs anymore, only reason I buy a CD is to support the artist.

                  Meh! I'd take my iPod over any other audio player out there. I use it to play music, thats what I bought it for. I dont need/want any power hungry features like a color LCD or video capability. I even think the iPod photo is kind of stupid.

                    iPod photo IS a gimmic. Who in their right mind would pay that much for a crappy 2 inch screen that shows crappy pictures? Alot of people I bet, but I sure am not going to be one of them... Hopefully.

                    Now if it took UMD and played video? Oh wait, thats called a PSP.

                    Another feature which suits me well is my iPod can act as a portable hard drive. Its really helpful when I go downstate to my friends place and can take alot of important files (read: porn) to his place to give to him.

                    XM is good if you want to hear fresh stuff, I'll give it that. The comedy stations usually have someone on that is hilarious. Besides that, the music isnt too much my flavour, so I'll stick with my iPod.

                        I have been looking for that. Only place i have seen it is on the xm website. Do you ever have any reception problems?

                          I'm pretty sure the very first feature anybody puts in an mp3 player is shuffle. My Rio player from 1999 had that.

                          One of our Doctors at work has a 60gig iPod photo. A huge feature is being able to have the TV out plug and plug it into a projector. He has hundreds of images of sonargrams and Xrays and MRI stuff there to show people, it's the perfectly made device for this. Before he had to lug around a laptop, and the iPod is way smaller than an lappy. All we need is Apple to add a DICOM viewer to it, and we'll buy a hundred more.

                          Word. the fact that it's a portable hard drive made mine a tax write-off. also the hard drive is very handy

                          Actually, you'll prolly want it most, before you get in the car, so you can decide which route to take. By the time you wait the ten minutes it takes for the local traffic guy report to come around, you might be heading right into that 15 mile traffic jam.

                          But if I use an XM, how can I steal music from the internet? And does it work indoors? When I'm locked in the computer vault?

                          Actually, do they make one for Sirrus? That really would be awesome.

                            Oh, I never thought of that, that is a very very good idea/use for it. But besides that, is it really that economical? Still a great tool, but not worth the $400 I think.

                              Reception is fine outside, took it to college today. Inside buildings it gets scetchy. I used the portable clip on antenna to boost signal strength. Otherwise it works great and I have no complaints.
