My new 4 GB mp3/file storage

review:

nomad muvo2 4 gb

whats great about this is, you can put ANY type of files on it. and its plug and play. so you could go over to a friends computer, and just plug it into the USB drag in say, a program, or dvdrip, and then load it back on to your computer. at the same time, u could also have over 1000 songs on it.

2.5 X 2.5 inches. crazy small... i like it so far, the only prob is the screen. its not too great navigation wise, which is why the miniipod is better in this category.

nomad under $200, 14 hrs battery > $240 mini ipod 8 hrs battery

I have an iPod. 20GB of storage and I can put any file I want on it. Why is this so special? Where could I take it or put it that I couldn't my iPod?

Get a iRiver iHP-120 like mine, 20 GB for like $350, but it comes with all the cables. The thing with it is, that it is plug and play, any PC you can plug the Unit with USB, and it is automatically shown up as a hard drive letter, while with iPod you need to install drivers and special software and its a big pain

its not flash. its a microdrive, and yes, the microdrives go for a little more than the nomad muvo 2. (at least on ebay) not $1400, more like $250

2004TL, yours sounds great too. i just cant justify myself spending over 200, or even $300 on a portable thing that plays music. (home/car audio = diff story). i also always lose/break these things. (for ex., i go through a cellphone once or twice a year)either way, it seems to me that 20gb for music is just out of hand. unless you are really looking into putting like 15 gb of other files on it.
