Which would be better as my first I-Pod the Nano or hunting down a cheaper mini?

Re: I-Pod Nano Stress Test
 

I would probably still go for the mini as it can still be sync'd using firewire where as the Nano is USB only. Apart from that I would get the nano as it looks amazing.

Also you can get a 6GB mini for the price of a 4GB Nano.

xmas 2006 maybe... :erm:

personally, i don't like the iPod nano...

Re: I-Pod Nano Stress Test
 

Worth noting that thats giga bit not giga byte meaning that each chip effectivly has 2GB storage. Not that thats a small amount at all.

You make want to hold off on those impuse purchases at the moment, it may not be all its 'cracked' up to be yet
You may prefer to wait for the MKII

Argos do an MP3 player for £20 that uses SD cards.
As for the nano, isn't that the one that gets scratched by the wind?

Re: I-Pod Nano Stress Test
 

I don't understand how that can be, given the extensive testing undertaken in the orginal link at the top of this thread!

BBC are reporting the 'problem' now as well:

We are already there in terms of minature hard drives, remember Hitachi's Mikey and Slim? http://www.mobilewhack.com/reviews/h...ll_phones.html

60gb in a 1.8" drive is a real achievement imo when compared with what we have now.
