Anyways, I have a CD player, but I like how light the Ipod mini is. Just picked it up and am currently downloading 1000 songs while the wife sleeps.

Yeah it only holds 1000 songs compared to the big one that holds 5000 songs...

270 bucks with tax added, and out the door.

Here is what gets me... the sound is better than my CD player, and much louder!!! ... and the freaking think weighs the same as a coke can with a couple of sips left in it...

I will use it for my 5 mile runs, and my 20 mile bike rides across the Golden Gate Bridge and back home....

Freakin' amazing the technology these days...
