Ok so i'm considering getting a mini ipod, mainly because 1000 songs is more than enough and i think they're a good size and cool. Any1 got one and if so what you think. Also any1 in the uk got one, any good sources or cheapest.
Finally will i get a better price if i wait till they're properly released. Thank you. Any help appreciated. :-D

@BOOYAR:
Apple still haven't officially announced a European release date or price, however, HMV have them for pre-order on their
web-site at £199. It remains to be seen if that will be the final price.
If it was me, I'd wait for the official European release for warranty purposes.

Its not worth the money when you can get 10 gigabytes more space for another 50 quid. You wont get 1000 songs on it if you care about sound quality either....... i just think you might regret it when the novelty factor wears off, and you run out of space.

run out of space, what are you on about, 1000 songs is roughly 70 albums. I have less than that, and listen to a fraction regulaly

Plus the fact that even if you did have more than 1000 songs stored in iTunes, you can just copy a sub-set of them to the iPod. Unless you want to listen to more than 60 hours of music in one go, an iPod mini has plenty of space!
Why do you need to carry that much music with you anyway?
I've got a 10gb iPod with 2300+ tunes on it, 95% full. However, I only listen to a small proportion of my whole collection at any one time. I could easily manage with a smaller iPod.

Well 70 of my cds encoded at 192kbps occupied about 3.8 gigabytes so you may be pushing it. Then again, you can encode at 128kbps which is acceptable for most people.

Do you really want to decide what music you want to listen to before you go out, then spend a bunch of time copying/deleting the songs you want? Later in the day you might find yourself hankering for some of the songs you left on your pc. Thats the purpose of an ipod, to have all your music with you. Otherwise you might aswell just use oggplay on your p9.
