I have a black one, it's pretty cool. I think it was a bit pricey for 5gigs, but it has replacable batteries and I don't really need more than 5 gigs anyway so that's why I chose it. It even comes with a free backup battery right in the box.

If any of you get one, be aware that some people have trouble with it locking up if they have it connected to USB 1.1 inputs using the supplied 2.0 cable. I had that problem but I used my cable from my digital cam and it worked. Or if you have USB 2.0 you shouldn't have any problems. Also, download the new firmware for it, it adjusts the sensitivity of the touch pad which was really touchy at first but that fixed it. Sorry if this is long, I thought I'd pass along the info.

what is the price of that Nomad mini?

apple's mp3 players suck.

Oops..actually its called the Zen Micro. The price varies..it depends where you go to buy it. I got mine from a website for $259.-- with shipping. Do a Froogle search or go to shopping.com and compare prices.

eek: annoy:

that is an ok price. i dont think ill ever get an ipod, id rather save for a new computer.

i have theiPod Photo. Its really nice and has a surprisingly good resolution. I want to make a program that will play movies on it. Or apple is just going to sodomize me by coming out with an iPod that plays movies and has it priced at 1000 bucks.

Thanks

I got the Nomad zen xtra now, its nice, but its fucking to big. I want something smaller.

Its not shuffle only, theres a switch on the back of the player that flips between shuffle and regular mode. Also, it comes in a 1Gb version aswell as a 512Mb one. For gods sake people, read before you post. rolleyes:

[quote="Apple.com":cd569]Choose from pocket-size 512MB or 1G models starting at $99 and surprise yourself.

[quote="Apple.com":cd569]With Play in Order mode, you manage the music. If things take a turn for the predictable, never fear. Turn iPod shuffle over, flip the slider to Shuffle and mix on the go.[/quote:cd569]

I just ordered a black zen Micro. Should be here thursday.

Now, i'm probably going to sell my Nomad zen Xtra which is 30 GBs....so if anyone would like to have it, i'll sell it to you for a good price. (If i decide to get rid of it.) But if you want it let me know, ill put you on a list.
