...this sleek media design makes me wanna eat it up... based on mp3 player review, you should get this pocket pc media player... it'll be gone quick, i'm sure... so get on that... great reviews from Amazon and CNET... comparison shopping sites don't come within $50 of woot's price... a definite getter... while the gettin's good... then, you should deck it out with some hot media player skins... i like green... but you can choose any color you fancy.
THE More Useful Link O' The Day
ALL iPod Shuffles on Shopzilla ... cuz i like less control... and its sooo cute... and its perfect for the gym
