That, and give me a nice player with FLAC playback and I'm there.

iRiver = junk

The H300 series was excellent. I've had mine for about 2 years and it's still going strong. I still have the option to rockbox it for even more customization. The best part is having it connect as an external mass storage device so I can just drag and drop through explorer to upload files.

Not bad for $179 bucks two years ago :)

maybe i'll get the new 80gb one for xmas! :D

That's why ipods suck, because the build quality is so piss poor.

Too bad you hadn't made your decision a little earlier. At the end of the Woot-off was the Zen Vision: M 30GB, new, for $185 shipped.

Actually, I would try the Zune.

the FM recording in the ZVM is taken out later on in the firmware 1.50.02 due to Creative not wanting a lawsuit with the RIAA.

I have a 30gb Ipod video and a Zune, and I love the Zune. The interface is so much more visibly appealing and intuitive. The bigger screen is a nice plus too.
