i'm thrilled with my 40GB model. and it was $150 less than the 40GB iPod. don't get me wrong, i think the iPod is very cool and i would have liked to get one, but i felt that my budget was around $300 for an mp3 player. my choices were the 20GB iPod, or a couple of other 20GB players that are priced around the same, or the 40GB creative nomad zen xtra. i decided that i'd rather have a more basic player (doesn't have the cool touch scroll thing like most of those $300-ish 20GB players) with enough space for most of my CD collection.
as for accessories, the only thing i really want to get is the interface that will give me an aux input in my car so that i can listen to the creative player there. headphones and the player is enough for me.
