Is a hard drive mp3 player ok for inline skating?

[gopunk]

i have a feeling it would suck for jogging, but what about inline skating? much smoother motions....

this is what it's all about... forget the ipod

I dunno, how would you mount wheels on it?

 

[BaboonGuy]

dang that thing is coooool. i am thinking it'd be fine for skating as long as you dont drop it.

I would think it'd work fine. Depending on how large the buffer is and how much shock protection it has, you might even get away with jogging with it.

haha yea i think i would cry... the thing is supposed to initially retail at 400 :Q

and i think it only has 8 mb buffer.

but 15 hour battery life... sweet screen + remote... fm player (and soon to be fm recording)... good company... *sigh* if only they would release the damn thing in the states faster!

haha... actually i could have sworn they had a really slick looking successor, but i think the might have scrapped the plans for that. i'll try and see if i can dig up pics...

ah my bad, that's the igp-100... a really small 1.5 gb player also in the works

Only 8mb buffer? Well that sucks, that's only like a second with my 64000kbps mp3s. Shoot!
