I got my feet wet with the iPod Nano (3rd gen).   I wanted it for several things.   Pictures being primary.  Some one asks about the kids...out comes the iPod.   About the grandkids....out comes the iPod.....ask about shooting........out comes the iPod.  I have personal pictures, gun porn, ham radio stuff, pictures of my show and technical stuff on there.

The iTouch has a bigger screen but this was a way to try out the technology.

Music and pod casts were second and I really don't use it that much.   I did at first but not so much....I'm not a big music "listener".   I do listen to some podcasts when I mow the lawn, but that's only once a week during the summer.  If I traveled more I'd probably listen more.

My biggest disappointment is the inability to store any meaningful size documents or databases.  I wanted to hold a complete listing of hams in GA, but the documents on the Nano are pretty limited in size. 

My next move will be an iTouch.   I can use the bigger screen and the many applications.  Maybe for Christmas
 

Laptop maybe?

Does anyone know the best way to convert my Alvin and the Chipmonks 78's to electronic anything  :-\

Haz,

If I could play my Iron Butterfly 8 track the drum solo would get me half way to Tulsa all by itself  ;D

Introducing sony!  They weren't out before I was consumed by apple.  Might have changed my mind on the situation.. Now I like my iTouch.
