Shopping at Walmart, now? Talk about evil incarnate.

I'm all for Toshiba's Gigabeat series after introduced by a friend. It ain't no inch, but it can hold more than 1 GB anyday.

Everyone knows iPods are overpriced and under-featured, at least they should. Spend $200 more just for a name and admission into the Apple yuppie club? No thanks! I'm half-tempted to get a Gigabeat just to show fellow college students what they're missing out on; sadly Apple's only still selling because it's the established name. They get props for starting the portable mp3 revolution, but nowadays the alternatives are better and better.
