^^ he he, i am not an
Apple fanboy and my primary reason for going for shuffle (or any such equivalent) is listening to podcasts etc and some
music....
\[/b]
I own a (original)
Panasonic MP3 disk player and though it's a great piece of technology, a shuffle makes a lot more sense for daily city commuting, a disk player is just too bulky to lug around all the time. 90 songs may not be much but swapping songs is not that big a deal, in any case I generally have 10-20 new songs that I'm really into at any given point of time. An MP3 disk player would be good if I were to go out of town for a few days as I could carry gigs of songs in a small CD spindle, even then a nano with a bigass capacity would be a lot more convenient. Light weight and jitter free!
There is a lot of hype associated with iPods but there is substance to back some of it up, the new clip-on shuffle is the ultimate in portability.
