April 3, 200521 yr I did the education thing...It gives you like 20 dollars off the ipod mini, but after taxes it's 192
April 3, 200521 yr The problem with Nomad, Rio and Iriver is that they are not MP4 compatible, which sucks. Ipod is. MP4s = better bitrate and less hard drive space. I am getting my 20 gig IPOD for 250 with free laser engraving and shipping 727537[/snapback] How are you getting it that cheap? And what exactly is bitrate? 727538[/snapback] www.apple.com/students Better sounding, more digital. Like how many bytes per second the song has, the more, the better quality. 727539[/snapback] PhishPhan, do you know if the songs from iTunes is in MP4 format and if not, where might I be able to find some? :mischief2
April 3, 200521 yr I just recently got the Nomad Zen NX 20 Gig. Not the most beautiful player but it's got plenty of space, was pretty cheap (cheaper than that 4 gig Ipod) and it works like a charm. Here's IGN's review of it: http://gear.ign.com/articles/437/437957p1.html 727522[/snapback] $300 = Price of 20GB iPod 727524[/snapback] I got it for $158 after shipping.
April 3, 200521 yr No camera on the PSP, and it doesn't play DVD's, you have to buy movies in the disc format that the PSP takes. Besides that, you have to buy a ton of extra memory on a card in order to get a good amount of music on the PSP. I do like the PSP but it's just not that great if you're using it for music.
April 3, 200521 yr PSP Can store music,play DVD's and has a built in camera if I'm not mistaken. 727579[/snapback] The PSP is much like the PS2 in that it can do extra stuff besides playing games, but the unit was not designed with that solely in mind. In other words, the PSP was meant to play games, much like the PS2 was meant to play games. And besides, I'm not going to spend extra money on buying UMD movies that I already have in my collection just so that I can play it on a PSP. :nono
April 3, 200521 yr so basically....does iriver do the same thing as ipod?? I dont need to spend the extra $100 for a name brand...
