[pct-l] hard drive based MP3 players

[Slow Comfort]

I've used the 8 gig nano extensively for about 4 months, some desert,
mountain snow mobiling & dog sledding, camping, etc.  I've dropped it,
banged it and about all I've had to do is just restore it with iTunes.  I
keep it attached to my upper arm.
