iPod elitism has a new reason

OK whats the real diff between generation 3 and generation 4 ipods?  I am now totally gay for Ipods and pretty much *will* have one in 4 months or *will* commit suicide.  But I dont really know the diff between all the various newish ones, I've kinda avoided info on Ipods because it just makes not owning one harder to bear.

Also, whats the deal with photo and video Ipods, where do they fit into the spectrum.

3rd generation has the buttons above the touch wheel.  The buttons also have red/orange backlights.  My friend has a 3rd generation, he loves it, but I can never get the hang of the buttons because you don't push them, you just touch them.

I have a 4th generation 20gb color screen, and I like it.  4th gen and upward have the buttons under the touch wheel.  Even though the buttons aren't backlit it's easy to use them in the dark because you can remember where they are by touch.  The buttons are click, not just touch, so I find it easier to use.

Photos (like mine) are basically 4th gen with color screens and photo storage capability (jpeg,gif,tiff,png).  Videos are 5th gen.  They have wider screens and are shaped somewhat differently than the 3rd and 4th gen iPods.  Videos are also SUPER-THIN.

I don't like ipods, or just apple in general, and I don't care who knows it. I'm all for the little guys, and apple isn't little anymore. Plus, they don't have all the features I would need for an MP3 player.

Chesire Cat:
Ok my roommate has a 20gig 4th gen then.  I thought it was 3rd gen because the firmware was 3.0somethingsomething.  It has no buttons, just the wheel and a colour screen.  

Im thinking, Ipod photo is totally unnecessary, just a step along the path of Ipod to Ipod Video, so looks like Im in the market for a 4th gen, at least 20 gig :)

Mention must be made of the video to Motorheads cover of God Save the Queen, in which a look-alike of the Queen does, indeed, get in the pit, and headbutts a skin, if my memory serves me well.
