talk to me about iPods

rmI had a generation 3 silver chiclet before the theft.
I loved it. It was light, but I could still feel if I had it or not, and it didn't have a touch screen (I hate fucking touch screens).
The chiclet no longer exists, having been replaced by some little tiny touchscreen thing that I find confusing. The shuffle is a no go. I hate the iTouch (and dude, if I'm going to go there, I'd get an iPhone which doesn't work on my carrier). So do I need to go with the Classic? Is there any benefit to ordering an old chiclet and a slightly reduced cost.
I feel like I get so much more bang for the buck with the new models, eventhough they are all bigger and heavier than I want or have the scary touch screen factor.
Weigh in?

I'm a pack rat. I love my 120 GB Classic. When it dies, I will likely upgrade to a 160.
