i got a question about the ipod do you have to convert all the videos you want on the ipod? or just some of them? iPod only plays H.264 and MPEG-4 videos - if you want to play anything else you'd have to convert it with something like SUPER. | ||

p.s. ipod IS an mp3 player, its just that it can also play mp4 format audio. I don't know why people classify Ipods as in a whole different ballgame. edit: here they talk about that new technology that I said. I have come to realize that this technology is coming out this year, and not the next(didn't know this article was a year old, haha). http://www.zdnetasia.com/news/hardware/0,39042972,62024682,00.htm check out this article, talks about HD on phones(also a year old article). http://news.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/0,39029678,49294627,00.htm The Nokia N95 sounds as a badass phone, but the N96 is.. well, sleeker. | ||

I've had no problems with the "bulk" (zomg .2 inches more). If anything it feels a bit more solid. Compared to Ipod
If you get it these are the must have accessories: http://www.bestskinsever.com/servlet/the-37/Creative-Zen-Vision-cln-M-Total/Detail Hands down the fucking sweetest accessory ever. 5-7$ for gaurenteed protection of you mp3 player. I can key it, scratch it, put it in my backpack/pocket, and all it takes is a quick wipe and its perfect. Putting on the shield is a bit tricky but once its on, you never need a case or any other protection.(i bought the face only and they mailed me the whole body kit :p) http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=13375&cat=1815&page=1 (AC Charger, allows playing while charging + charges faster) And some other handy things are: http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=13374&cat=1815&page=1 (Car Charger) http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=12423&cat=1815&page=1 AV cables so you can play music/movies through any TV (i can bring my mp3 player and hook it up to a TV so i dont need movies or dvd player or anything) For some good reviews of all mp3 players go here: http://www.anythingbutipod.com/ | ||

I heard of a new chip that Texas Instruments(TI FTW VATOS!) that will allow you to play HD quality videos in it as well as other neat thingy magingies. Just so you know, there are already phones that can do everything an iphone can do and more. They just don't have as pretty a UI. | ||
