Heh... you should consider a PC and a Creative player. I have a Zen that was initially a 30gb HD (purchased new last year for $255, now you can get the 60gb model for just $319), but I threw a 60gb drive in there for only another $115. And I can swap the battery myself. The Creative players are slightly bigger, and admittedly not as stylish, but the sound quality is better and they're infinitely easier to mess around with. I read somewhere about getting them to work on a Mac (on nomadness.net, I think), but I can't find drivers anywhere. Geez. A 60gb iPod will probably run... $600?

I was gonna go Ebay, but they end up being $375US or so, which is only slightly less than the $400 price at the stores. > > I'm new to all this- What's the difference between 3rd and 4th generation? I'm not gonna wait for the 60G because as it is now I've got 35G in my Mac which is only about 1/2 my cds (encoded as AAC which is slightly smaller than mp3), so I'll end up needing two eventually. > > Any accessories that I should consider? > > Thanks for the advice.
