Iys Crap Iriver have had one out thats does all that for the last 6 months and you can transfer direct MP3's onto them without converting them for the ipod.
Ipod are just copying I-river
Better features that ipod aswell.

What a load of cack, a 2" inch display lol my portable tv (which i brought about 8years ago) had a bigger screen than that
eitherway, like nismo said, there just following suit to other manufactures such as archos, who have had a video/photo/mp3 player out for about 2yrs- and their newer AV400 series player looks the bomb, has a biggers screen etc

At the end of the day, despite what it does an iPod is seen as a fashionable gadget more than a music player...

rob 40Gb is a shit load of music bare in mind you are going to be listening to it through ear phones / car stereo etc.. so you do not need 192K bit rate
you can make the files less than a 100K bit rate and you will never notice the difference , ive got 318 albums on me drive and its only just under 40gb.
