I used to buy into some of this Apple hating. Then I got a 3rd generation nano a few weeks ago. There's a lot of hating just because it's Apple. Not everything they make is great, but the nano is a solid, functional product that just happens to look very good.

I agree Tinman. I bought a couple of Nanos before and they are excelent portable music machines...solid mechanis, nice design, great user interface and great integration with iTunes. Maybe some other devices have more features but I'm not using an MP3 player to "enjoy gimmick features".
I just bought an iPod Touch 16GB. People can say whatever about Apple but reality is that the total sum of qualities in Apple's MP3 players just blow away all competition.

If all you need is a long list of useless features in your MP3 player, don't buy Apple :-)
