Your posts are almost unreadable. You do know where the $ sign goes, don't you?

Don't take offense to my post though. Have a :beer: if you don't like it.

I can read it, it can be more convenient since 300$ would be "three hundred dollars" . And what he says has a point.

the color screen will make it sound better, for sure. just like the spiffy looks make macs "faster" and "better for media."

Useless alright... unless, of course, you have over 200GB of music like me, and would like to have it all available at any time.

60GB is way too small... where are the 200GB portable music players with swappable hard drives?

And how long would it take you to go through 200GB of songs without hearing the same thing over again? Let alone 60GB.

Are you alone THAT much that you listen to THAT much music? :)

About 3 months straight. But that's not the worst of it... I've actually listened to just about every song in my collection at some time or another, and all of them are hand-tagged by yours truly...

Damn, I need a girlfriend ASAP.

Lacks grammar... I guess that's it :p

Like I said, not attacking you, it was just bothering me. Also, it gave me an excuse to increase my pathetically low post count :beer:
