What do you guys think? I have the 3G 15G iPod, but really like the smaller form of the mini. I can trade-in my iPod for about $130 towards the purchase of a mini. Any opinions?

it all depends how much big your music collection is. if you only 1 gig of music, I would certainly trade it in for the mini. After all, you'll still have 3 gigs of memory left. personally, the mini's hard drive is way too small for me.

and, instead of a trade in, i would sell mine on ebay. i'm sure you can a lot more than $130 for a 15gig Ipod.

If you feel the mini is worth it for your needs, sell your 15GB elsewhere (eBay, the Marketplace forum here, etc). If it's in good condition, you could probably get $200+ for it, which would nearly pay for the mini.

I wouldn't do it, but then again I have a lot more than 4 GB of music. If I had 1 or 2 gigs, though, I would already have a green mini
