I will never join the iPOD fan club. I've got enough toys now. My own little Personal Media Players are a Sony NetMD Walkman and a Diamond RIO PMP256 which was the height of all PMPs when I bought it during the Napster years. both suit the devil out of me. i doubt I'll even think about upgrading either device.

I don't Ipod either hooked one up once for the kids and it tried to consume my music collection.
I do have 2, 250 cd changers connected a friend did that years ago. Soon tho' he's going to hook me up with a mp3 setup that will access all 8 gig of music, however I want it to play. He said for example I can just select a category or total shuffle and let it play whem I have a BBQ or pool party. He says I wouldn't have to change it for days. I don't know if that's a good thing or not.
