Astatine Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 You might end up having to pay lots of import duty or something, though... could be a false economy You don't want an iPod anyway, they're really fragile, use dodgy proprietary software rather than just appearing as an external hard drive, have overly short battery life (and you can't replace the battery), only play AAC and MP3, and are a target for muggers these days apparently... I've been eyeing up an iRiver H340, myself. Bit expensive. But none of the points above apply to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pope Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I have a Zen Jukebox from Creative, it's practically the same thing. I've enjoyed it very much, but now my battery loading circuit is broken, and I've been waiting for over a month to get it back repaired. Why does Creative need to be so frickin slow...

Dragon Lord Jones Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I have a Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra by Creative, 40gig battery last upto 14hrs/charge ... decent software, around $249 .... I love it. edit;The headphones that come with it aren't the greatest though. http://www.creative.com/products/product.a...14&product=9288 http://www.crutchfield.com/S-m8MiPZbsMNd/c...1&avf=N&search= crutchfield is a fairly good company .... I've ordered from them a few times, always had good service and product. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
