iPod video probably because of the fact that it can play videos, it has more space, and it is small enough anyways.

the video is a much much better value considering cost, storage, video, etc..
but if you really want it to be small nano will work

20 gig..2 hours of battery life with a video is not worth it. nano is too small and queer..20 gig is the way unless you need more space then get a 30 or 40 gig

i got the nano and i love it if i had the choice again i would still get the nano its great just ask yourself what you want it for then make your decision, having the nano makes carying it around litterally feel like there is nuthing there.

just look through a lost and found bin...for sure you can find some sort of ipod in there. they are way too popular now and i would never get it. i have nothing against them, just personal preference.

yeah you can put your own videos on (even DVDs), but not with apples software. For mac i got handbrake to encode mpeg4 and H.264, heres a couple good links

http://diveintomark.org/howto/ipod-dvd-ripping-guide/ For mac

http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000027063418/ for windoze

i dont care much for the video in the new iPods, but the 20 hrs battery and the really thinness makes them a pretty sick deal for sure... and i have a nano (i got it for free a month ago, wish i had waited and picked the new iPod)

yes you can take any video and encode it into MPEG-4 and then send ti to your ipod. I dont believe apple is supporting this yet so it has to be done with external software and not itunes. but apple says they will soon enable that feture

the new video ones are dope my buddy just got a 30 gig. bigger screen than the old ones and much thinner. video quality is good but you have to either pay for quicktime pro to convert vids or find another converter online and get a crack for it. it is very sweet though.

and yeah you can pay for the apple videos but theyre a few bucks each and who wants that. get quicktime pro or something and convert all the shit u download.

pro is 30 bucks forever, not yearly or monthy. my friend got a trial of some other converter and cracked it so he had the full version for free but im not sure what program.

and the 30 gig videos are $300 and the 60 gigs are $400
