im a big MAC fan like you guys know... so you guys might not take my opinion that well... but i think its horrible... because it did not bring anything new to the table.... all the players that have been labeled so called "ipod Killers" have been failures because they cant bring anything new... and the integration between itunes and ipod has not even come close to being matched
