[QUOTE="nesuser2, post: 29244"] Well, I don't really care for the colors myself and 4gb just isn't enough. I have the original 5gb model and it just doesn't cut it anymore. Someday(*Soon*) I plan on getting a 15gb model because I need the space and want something new. So if anybody is in the market for a nearly mint 5gb 1g ipod, I may have one for sale with case and car charger(Shameless plug) Also, I think the idea of jogging with an ipod is a very very bad idea. Hard drives are pretty sensitive and even if they are packaged in the ipod to accept levels of shock, I wouldn't run with it in use. All you have to do is scratch a platter the slightest and it's over. If you ever have a bad hard drive, you usually can't fix it because to take it apart and fix any internal components...you usually have to be in a controlled atmosphere. One without dust and I can't honestly think of one place that doesn't have any dust of debris in it. Take an old hard drive apart sometime and you can see what i'm talking about with the platters and the read/write heads and on old hard drives the components are larger considering the ipods hard drive is pretty compact compared to hard drives of yesterday. Just my two cents, which has a varying exchange rate of about 5-6, give or take ;) [/QUOTE]
