Well, my old iPod packed it in so I was thinking of waiting until we were in the US to buy one but Best Buy in Palm Springs is asking $249.00 US for the 120 GB and our local Future Shop was asking the same CDN for a silver one. Simply Computing (the latest Apple outlet in Victoria and is a very cool shop) matched the price and I could choose a black one.
I love the video aspect and it certainly would have been great to have in France when we were there for long periods since the media is the pits and all movies in theatres and in video stores are dubbed into French. Weird system the French have...Monique's mother thought Robert Redford was French! You can rent movies from iTunes for $4.95, have them on your iPod for 30 days and then have 24 hours to watch them once you start. And of course you can watch them on your computer screen rather than the small one on the iPod. Probably can hook up to TV's as well if they're relatively modern.
