Default Which iPOD?

After setting up my other halfs nano in my scoob I have decided to get my own as she has soooooo much crap on hers it's unreal,


So my question is which one do i get and where from?? Don't want another nano as the memory isn't large enough and I want one that will hold a few films as i have a long flight ahead of me in a couple of weeks.


Thanks in advance for your help

Hello

I have an iPod Touch and it is great. The 16gb version has been enough for me: 8gb or so of music and then load up films and TV programs (converted with Videora (Videora Converter)).

The picture quality is really good and the battery life not too bad ... around 4 hours with video. It also has wireless so you can surf the web if you can find an open access point (or have a T-Mobile hotspot account for airports).

It has certainly kept me entertained on 'planes and at airports.

From the Zune players I have seen, I would agree, far fairer pricing.

We got our daughters one from these on the pre order iirc it was about £169 although they are a little more now and if you want something that is not the usual ipod stuff then thats the one 80 gig radio built in and so on.
