    For a bit if fun, here's a Sansa-converted clip of my appearance on the BBC news - yes me in the background between my two daughters cars competing on the rally Not the best original quality, but gives you an idea of size/frame rate etc.
    I get a very short show of Angus Graham stepping into his 1935 Aston Martin, and then it stops...

    ok. After much deliberation i think I'm going to go for the Creative Vision M. The fact that its only £20 more than a nano/sansa swung getting a HD player for me.

    the creative seems to be a bit more solid, has wider audio/video capabilities and an fm radio.

    the only question now is what colour



    also does anyone have one? what is the software like??

    EDIT: right it just as well i checked something. the creative vision m does NOT work with windows 2000 (which is what i have)
    guess that kind of makes the choice very easy!

    Ipod 30Gb it is.

    The screen on teh sansa is portrait. You turn it on it's side to view videos. You can either turn your monitor or your head

    Daughter has the Pink
    All round very good.
    Major drawback tho is lack of accessories compared to iPod.
    So can't get it fitted in the RX8
    Software is fine ... we dont' use built-in MediaPlayer or iTunes access tho'. Not needed.
    Good choice -- but I purchased in the US which was a BIG discount given £:$ rate )
