Heya,

The iPod Mini does have a 1" 4GB Hitachi hard drive in it. The Creative players are the ones with the 4GB CF card that are being bought and cannibalized by photographers, as they are much cheaper than the other options!

I have a 2G 10GB iPod. It's an awesome player, and I've dropped it many times. I've seen the competition, specifically the Archos players, just fall apart and not handle the beatings that an iPod can take.

That, and I have a Mac and a PC with XPlay that I've used it with, and it's FAST. USB 2.0 does not have the speed that Firewire does for long sustained transfers.
