cannot decide on iPod Mini
as i dont have a cd player i thought it was timke to make the p;lunge to some sort of portable music device. I thought it would be better to get an mp3 player as opposed to a cd/mini-disc/walkman. I think I will definatly go for an iPod of some sort. the small size of the iPod Mini appeals but im not sure if itys enough space. At first i though that 4Gb (1000 songs) would be ample, however i would probably be close to filling that with the cd's I have not leaving me with much future proofing. Also i'm finding myself downloading mroe and more (legal) mp3's.
So i wanted to know uyour opinion. the 15GB standard iPod isn't much more expensive, how big is it? how does it compare to say carrying a portable cd player around? Thanks, Nick. |

Ipod (20Mb)
Just checked the specs on cnet review, size is 4.1 by 2.4 by 0.62 inches, so is smaller than a cd player, 8 hour battery life (rechargeable), good review of 85%, hope this is useful info |

I don't think I need 30GB of space anyway. 20GB should be fine. 15GB perob would of been fine as well but for an extra 5GB and some more stuff i may as well pay the extra £50. the mini one (4GB) definatly wouldn't of been enough.
