    @ Lethal
    You use the american site to get stuff. Delivery must take ages.

    Suffles are great for working-out. Me and my bro share one. Its cheap and we got a nice case for it.

    The shuffle & nano are designed with portability in mind for use whilst on-the-move, whereas, I feel the iPod video is designed for those with a liking to technology & PMP's :)

    Videos are use for traveling more. and the nano/suffle are used to get sweety with. i am still confused on why people get minis though.

    They don't anymore as they are no longer manufactured and haven't been in production for a while..

    Ya i know i was talking in the past though. Sorry if i didn't make it clear. But people still get them on ebay and other places. It is just they break when droped, so you cant workout with them. And they dont have much room for traveling with. All they do is come in dif colors.

    I know, but it is the only iPod which come in may different colours.. which will always appeal to the more fashion-conscious consumer.

    That is also, a matter of opinion. Some prefer the iPod mini.. It does have it's fair share of advantages over the nano.. it is less flimsy, thus less likely to be damaged by an action as innocuous as putting it in your pocket. Also, because it is designed and manufactured differently from all the other iPods, it doesn't get scratched as easily as other iPods..

    I would still say that a cheap internet site like amazon is more likely to give you a reliable product that eBay, which these days, can be a massive disappointment..

    Ebay is fine if you do your reseach on the person you are buyying from. liquidators are probably the best if you see that they have a long history of selling the porduct. Then you sould be safe :)
