iPod 3rd Gen 40G. For driving, work and home use. Best and simplest user interface in the world, and is an external HDD to boot. I love and pamper it to death.

3G iPOD 40 gig. Use it at work, in the car, working out, at the movie theater waiting for flicks to start. I just carry it all the time and use it to cure a few minutes of boredom.

I don't use mine at all. I thought I would when I first bought it... but I don't lead the right lifestyle for one. I drive alot, but I have a cd player in my car with all the music I want. I work at a computer helpdesk, so no need for one here with 15 computers around me. My leisure time is spent around the house or with other people.. neither of which really merits carrying an mp3 player around.

I have the old nike player. I got it when I joined the gym but now I use it to mow the lawn. (well I use the lawnmower to mow the lawn, I use the mp3 player to listen to music while mowing)

i have a 20 gig iriver and i use it mainly on long roadtrips. when the driver and i have different tastes in music, its nice to throw on the headphones. since there's so much storage i also like to take it to friend's houses w/ slow internet connection. that way i can give them a lot of my computer files and vice versa. i also back up most of my important computer documents/apps/pics/games on it.

I've got an iPod and use it when I'm working out (which is damn near daily), mowing lawn, driving (hook it into my input on my deck), dj'n, portable storage..

all sorts of fun crap like that :)

I will say it was the best investment I've made
