so im thinking of getting an ipod or similiar device

[illusion88]

If I get it it would be strapped to my right arm (bicep) or put in the back pocket on my jersery.
What do you think?

Should I go for the 4gb nano or spend the extra $50 and get the 20gb ipod?


Or should I scrap the whole ipod deal and find me another.

 

[Tylanner]

nano for its skipless qualities.

 

[dartworth]

nano...flash based, no moving parts...

 

[illusion88]

yeah thats what I was thinking.

Has anyone used an ipod strapped to their arm while cycling? MY arm doesnt get a whole lot of movement, at least alot less then my legs! I was thinking maybe it wont skip so much.

get a used minidisc player on ebay for reeeeally cheap, like 30 bucks. the media is pretty cheap too i think.

Who cares?...
5 GB flash by SEAGATE...
voice recording
FM tuner
rechargable battery
Noise ratio up to 95 db.
Small (cube wise)

Why wouldn't you get it?
you could probably sit on the nano and break it.

Well then, we wouldn't want to break the LCD would we?
It played on, but sitting on the LCD would be the sux0rs.

nope dartwoeth posted the link.
If i wanted an fm tuner i would get a walkman. Nano has a rechargable battery, i never would use voice recording, and cubes dont fit very well in pockets. Also the ipod nano has a better color screen, better controls, is fully integrated with itunes, and is amazingly designed.

... umm they dropped it out of a car at 30MPH and the lcd still worked. you must be a huge fatass if sitting on it is going to do anything.

Our first test consisted of placing the iPod nano on a solid wood chair and sitting on it, as people are prone to do from time to time. As you can guess, this "test" yielded basically zero damage results?so little, in fact, that we didn't even take pictures.

ROFL...
you know. you convinced me.
I succumb.
DAMN IT.

But I might change my mind because of the fact the muvo 2 fm is UMS... unless you prove me wrong.
