as many of you probably know, i sell iPods. ive finally caved in and decided to keep one for myself. i have never used nor even listened to one before. i know, kinda funny. i dont even know how to work one
anywho, ive been doing some research on them. im torn between keeping a 20g photo and a 30g video. i just found out that the new 30g video doesnt even allow you to put your own videos in!! like short clips of my kid or internet funnies. the only videos you can put on there are episodes of LOST and itunes music videos
i also found out that the new ones lost the output jack on top (or whatever its called) so most of the accessories are no longer useful. the only saving grace, from what ive read, is that the new ones supposedly have much more clarity.
so im kinda at a draw. i like how the 4th gens have more accessories to utilize (like remote control) but i dont want to miss out on the clarity. i plan to put my entire cd collection on here to use in my cars. im hoping it will sound as good on my system as a cd/radio does. can anyone tell me if the 4th gens are perfectly fine clarity wise? i want it to (hopefully) have cd quality. am i asking too much of this little thing? 
Persoanlly I think the iPod Video was a stupid idea... or a flop on Apple's part... Theoretically it SOUNDS cool, like.. "HEY! be able to take your videos and TV shows wherever you go... but... you have to pay for each TV episode you want to put on." Its really not worth it for the extra money, I would say stick with the iPod photo. I dont understand why apple made this innovative portable audio player into a "multimedia" player... Kind of ruins the concept of it. I think if anything they should have fixed that stupid battery problem before they came out with all of these new "ideas." If I ever get a new media player, im getting a zen micro.
