I'm planning on buying an iPod to exercise with, and while I realize that the nano is better-suited to this, I'd really like to have the extra space and can't really justify spending $200 on a 4gb nano when I can spend $50 more and get a 30gb video. I've read mixed reviews of the arm-bands for the video, and also that some are fine, while others stink. Is there any consensus on which one is the best?

thanks,

Bob

for exercise you want the smallest iPod possible. Having one without the hard-drive is a good idea also. I always liked the older iPod shuffle. The new clip iPod Shuffle maybe the way to go (lightest and has a built in attachment accessory = no armband).

Do you really think you will be watching videos when your exercise at the same time?

the iPod Nano can use the Nike+ system (runners/walkers).
