Before I click the checkout and pay option, there is a 80gb iPod for ?155 I'm very close to buying, unless of course someone can warn me off or recommend something superiopr for a similar price. So fire away...

 

...also I'll need to buy a laptop in order to put any music on the c?nt so if anyone knows anything about them too...budget is well abvout 2 grand but I'm b?ggered if I'm spending more than ?500 on one, no requirement for anything special, but it needs wireless (which I presume is standard nowadays) and ought to work at average speed, a slow one will be thrown through the window eventually.

 

Thanks flapwanglers

I'm no expert but... you can get the iPhone for ?169 which would be like an iPod but with touch screen and most likely better than your current phone (if your with o2).

 

o2 iphone on 18 month contract.

iphone=bad idea

depends on size Maggie. i got a Nano fert gym, running, etc.

wouldn't fancy a big dobber on my arm (though I nearly had one in the local last night!).

 

mentioned it before, get yerself on the Apple Refurb store. Pick up some good bargains on there.

The player is good, but the rest of the package is a bagoshite.

 

I've had all sorts of bother with firmware and iTunes.

Six months in the desert!

get an ipod touch

 

dog's b?ll?cks

 

make sure you download all the album artwork as well via itunes

 

iphone is good

 

but I like to keep my mp3 player and phone seperate

 

are you sure it's not 8gb for ?155?

 

80gb seems some what generous (and I've been ripped off for mine)

 

This is what you need!

Get an 80G for 144 quid

 

You've been done Zico

Smiffs, the world's moved on. They have far more portable equipment now.

I've got a 80gb Archos mp3/mp4. Bigger than ipods but still fit in yer pocket and great for watching films on.

 

I watch my films on a 50" plasma telly. Maybe I'm old fasioned.

 

However, it wont fit in my pocket.

 

It might fit in a clowns pocket though.

I think I'm in need of surgery to stitch me back up - the whole site today has been awash with some damn fine humour!

You can get a 160GB Ipod for around 180/200 quid, and a decent enough laptop for 300-350

Hold your f?ckin horses here, 160Gb is big enough for about 40000 songs.

 

There have not been 40000 songs made ever.

 

Ever ever ever.

 

You could own every Shadows and Cliff Richard compilation, and still not fill it up.

Ive got a microsoft zune.

pretty good, 30gb.

thinking about goin back to an ipod though, itunes is alot easier to use than the zune software.

Can it play LP's?

Can it play 78's?

I have a jukebox program on my laptop and randomly play them. There is a lot of skipping of tracks as I do have some shite amongst them. Doubt very much that every track has been played.

got wireless access on it and I can find out my precise geographical location at the touch of a button, v handy

 

that said, in the middle of the desert, a classic will probably suffice
