Hello everyone.
would you buy a 60 gig previous version for 229
or
a current 30 gig for 209?

does anyone know the differences between the two? Ive got a 3g 15 gig and am looking to upgrade. Im also thinking about waiting to see the next gen ipod...

Well is brighter display, longer battery life, a music 'search' feature and $20 worth more than 30GB for you? Those are the only differences.

thanks for the info everyone.

I havent noticed itunes 7 being that different, but im not exactly a "power user" these days, I almost never connect the ipod to the computer, I wall charge and go for weeks at a time. My ipod is old enough that it cant do anything fancy so I dont even try
