Screw this, I’m sticking with the PocketPC for my music needs for now. As much trouble as it is, it’s just too much of a hassle to switch at the moment.
The iHP-120 looks really nice, but is expensive and even bulkier than the PocketPC. The iPod has the capacity, but not much else. The other iRiver players are nice and small, but damn hard to get hold of and also rather pricey for the larger-memory models. And miscellaneous other faults in the other products.
Of course every product has its downsides, but considering that I already have a more-or-less working solution at the moment, whatever replaces it had better be damn-near perfect if I’m going to be shelling out hundreds of dollars…
That last sentence sounds eerily me-ish….
