An Mp3 Player Question.
Spinless:
For every 1000 iPods sold, maybe 100 will break. Sometimes, the fault of the user.
For every 1000 creative zens sold, I reckon about 700 of these won't work straight out of the box.

iPods are quite nice, but lately I've found I get better sound out of my Walkman phone simply due to it having the Sony "Megabass" bass boost feature. If anyone knows of a way to replicate this on the previous gen iPod nano (which I have and am extremely unhappy with the tinny sound quality of) then I will be able to save myself some money in about a month.
I have used the same decent pair of in-ear Sennheiser earbuds with both players and the Walkman phone still sounds better. I've also listened to my friend's current-gen iPod nano and it sounds the same (ie: tinny). I will be upgrading my phone to a pda phone reasonably soon (once my current contract runs out) and that'll have shithouse sound, so I'm looking to either make my current nano sound better or get a new Walkman/something else with decent bass response.

You can always mess with the equalizer settings on the iPod to get better or at least different quality sound but I'm not sure what you want from it. I've got a Nano (not sure what gen.) and I'm pretty happy with it. I had a first gen Mini and that crapped out on me right after the warranty expired. It was just the battery so I'm open to the option of fixing it but I'm not very technically minded and might fuck it up. At anyrate I love the Nano I have which I bought off a co-worker, I've never had any problems with iTunes running on my PC which all in all is not an amazing machine and I really only manage the music from inside iTunes itself. I don't use any unusual file formats (just Mp3, Mp4, WMA and of course AAC). It's a pretty simple device to use. I'm going to try to put some photos on it tonight.
Oh and Est, you might want to look into the Sony Ericcsson w960i. 8Gb internal upgradable memory (i think) with the same walkman features that you'd be used to plus Gracenote music database stuff. Not sure if it's out here yet and it isn't very PDA-y but it might be up your alley if you want a Walkman phone with a fair bit of memory.
Spinless:
first gen nano=tall, skinny, shiny, plastic
second gen nano=Tall, skinny, shiny, aluminium
third gen=wideboy.
