for $30!!

I had a couple Circuit City gift cards collecting dust...

Samsung 1GB

Gonna use it for when I go out running...I was looking at the Shuffle, but this one is way better; one reason being it has a screen. Plus, I won't need to install iTunes...

itunes is crap!!! I have an ipod nano, and its a sweet little unit, but WHY did apple have to use proprietary garbage? You need thier cable to sync, thier software to sync, PLUS to charge the damn thing, you need the cable and a USB port. No AC option.

Yea...Apple has ALWAYS been about proprietary...."Think Different"

This one is charged through the USB port too, but there's no cable, the connector flips out. It's basically a flash drive, with an LCD screen....that happens to play MP3s. You can use it for file storage too, just like a flash drive.

Am I still the only one with a standard portable CD player still? I've had that thing since 1999. 10 pairs of headphones later, still works.

nope, I still have one too... It's a Discman from the days before skip protection

Ouch. Actually, I got one of them too. Id still be using it, but it wouldn't play CD-R's...

I still have the one I bought when they first came out. Spent 230 bux on it. It sparingly used a set of AA batteries in 2 1/2 hours if you didnt skip songs around too much. Great sound though... No CD-R's, or MP3s. Just a bass boost and a random button for options. Ahh the good ole days!
