Have fun paying $550 or higher for this (pretty average) player. You really don't have any options, either. Well, besides waiting for other companies, that is.

Yeah the AV700 was just really big. I have the AV420, which was a freaking awesome device at the time I got it, paving the way for of its kind nowadays. But, what you may want to look at is the Archos 100GB AV500, a step in the right direction for Archos. It's got good reviews everywhere. And it's even more compact than the one I have, plus better video.

Wow. I might get myself this and give the AV420 to my dad or something.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

With my 20GB PMP, I liked filling it up because I don't update the content on it too often. That way, even if it's been weeks since I last put music on it, there's still a ton of stuff that I either haven't listened to yet or only heard a few times. Also for those long trips, you can be sure it'll never loop. But basically, a wider choice. I put video on mine (anime and tv shows and some music videos usually) to watch on the go, so bigger is useful for me too. So it just comes down to that wider choice. My brother has the 512 MB iPod Shuffle, which suits him just fine since he likes to always be managing his list.

It may also be wroth mentioning that the AV500 in my above post can work with iTunes as well, for those of you who use that. I'm sooo upgrading.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
