4GB each??? xvid rips of 30 (21) minute shows are 175MB. MEGAbytes. The ipod-sized rips are generally 125. 4GB is completely wrong, that's almost an entire DVD image.

Yeah, Amazon's got this info really messed up...I can't figure out what the difference is between this model and one $40 cheaper, as apparently they're both Atoms with 2GB and 64GB storage. The price difference would make sense if one of them had more storage (or SOMETHING), but I can't figure out what the difference is.

All depends on what you plan to use it for.Usually more is better.I have the 16GB unit and that is fine for me.I will never use the 16GB. But if you plan to download a real lot then get the bigger one.There is an expansion slot on all.

You can check out the differences here. http://store.sony.com/gsi/webstore/WFS/SNYNA-SNYUS-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductCompareService-Show?CategoryID=0AQKmUBwIA8AAAFAUJUihoTfThe size difference has different storage capacities.

haha go ahead and vent :)If I were you I would just wait. But dont buy the AppleCare for your 80gig. Just use it till it dies and isnt covered by warranty, and get whichever new one comes out. However next time check out macrumors and they have a buying guide, it shows you the past "update" history of the various mac products and gives you a small bit of advice on wether to buy or not. I'm going to stick with my 30gb for now too. Maybe give it to a family memeber later and buy a new one later :)

I bought a 4GB Nano 2 years ago because I only had 3GBs of music. Now I have 16GBs. Getting an iPod may give you the bug to listen to more music. With the ease of switching between songs and creating playlists, any mp3 player will drive you to experiment a little with your music taste. I also could not have cared less about the pictures or video (still don't) - but I got really into podcasts, and those take up space (if you like radio, check out podcasts - better quality, fewer interruptions). Bottom line - you will probably regret not spending the extra $50. The 80GB is a little more delicate than the nano (spinning hard drive vs. flash memory), but if you are just going to keep it at home it should not be an issue.

good evening, I will actually install a 32 gb and not think of any problem, now I have a 16 gb and goes just as well.

only difference is that you can store more movies, music and pictures, if you are a downloading geek and want to store an extensive library of stuff on your device + gazillions of apps, go for 32GB, I am OK with 16GB

I did not answer your question properly, 30 minutes = 2 GB so a 32 GB should give 8 hours.....but it will auto stop at 30 min so it has to started every 30 min.

I would go with the 64gb version you can use the extra space and the price difference is not that great. The 32GB version does provide a backup of the system restore on a micro SD card not on the system. Even with this I would still purchase the 64GB version.

I load extra software on it,it works fine.75-80mb per sec when you copy files.

If they'r enot going to jump straight to 150GB or more, why even bother? Solid-state memory has already exceeded 32GB and has MUCH better performance attributes, including durability, energy/battery life, and flexibility.I will hold out for either a 1TB version or 64GB flash disk (or 32GB Flash disk + CF card expansion capability). And forget it if they try to ram some proprietary codec down my throat!

I was actually considering spending the extra $130 for another 2gb... Too bad it won't work. Thanks for the help!

I have not had any problems with the 32 gb so far! It holds more data than the 16 gb. Not sure if anyone else has any problems.

Yeah it will do. I have an original 80GB PS and I purchase a lot of anime videos and it takes up a lot of memory. The external hard drive is great for backing up videos and music. The downside is that it doesn't back up games or game add-ons. If you need extra memory, this is it for you.

I intend to use a 32gb card. Does that mean that it will not use the built in 8gb? Therefore I am paying extra for nothing?
