For me, I could care less about the size. The 4gb Nano would do great for me during runs and workouts or whatever. I'm not going to listen to over 1,000 songs during that time anyway. The price for the Nano is about right considering the prices of flash media. I don't personally find it that pricey.

The iRiver still il small enough to fit in your pocket (about the size of the orginal iPod...as for the color screen, I believe I said it played video...
of course you don't
need that much space...but why not? I use mine as an external hard drive... the FM tuner gives me radio, and I watch movies during long trips wih awesome quality...
Even the sound is better on the iRiver.
Now, of course, if youre gonna be running with with, the best, I guess, is flash based memory..
but for most people, I think the smartest choice would be the iRiver: more bang for your buck
