talk to me about iPods

[rm]

I 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The chiclet no longer exists, having been replaced by some little tiny touchscreen thing that I find confusing.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've got a clip and two Fuzes and I'll fourth the recommendation. I got mine cheap off of woot.com, but I had the luxury of being patient and waiting for them to show up during a wootoff.

I use the Fuzes more than the clip, but that's a trade-off for me of interface over size. I usually have both a Fuze and a Clip in my bag.
