Is that a typo or something. I have 30 gig on my Archos 604 and I'm out of space on it???? Al, is your Archos flash based? I'm guessing that's why it the iTouch only goes up to 16 gig. I have a 30 gig iPod and I'm almost out of space as well.

Al, unfortunately, 'solid state memory' (aka: flash) has yet to catch up to even near 'hard disk memory' capacity levels, but the advantage of 'flash' is there are no moving parts (ei: spinning hard drives) which will easily be damaged if dropped: head crash. That said, I'm sticking with my 80GB 5G iPod, or eventually moving up to the new 160GB iPod if/when I need even more memory. Scott _________________________

I guess you have to buy the iPod classic with 160 gig, instead of the sexy new iTouch. I just thought it a peculiar marketing move?
