Got a sony walkman 20gb which is good but the software that came with it was awful.
With an Ipod can you 'drag and drop' files onto it like a pendrive or do you have to import them into something like sonicwave which then uploads them onto your device.+ a little disapointed with the sound quality.

Wishkid... with iPods you use iTunes (supplied) to drop the files onto your iPod, no other software needed. All you have to do is plug the iPod in, open iTunes and drag stuff across from your music library onto your iPod.

Never had any issues with sound quality, whether im using it with headphones or in the car (ive got one of them little wireless transmitters that plays through the radio).

I've got a Creative Zen Micro 5GB.

It is frickin' awesome! Great sound, no complaints.

Picked up some KOSS headphones. They fit like earplugs...they help block out the outside noises while increasing the bass response. So, things are even better now. 8)

I got a set of them Koss headphones, the ones with full on earplugs that ''shape'' to your ears. Only problem is my right ear gets really waxy and kept having to buy new plugs, so got a set of rubber things which work in pretty much the same way but dont block up :lol:

the N91 is a newer version Pat.

Ive got a Sony Ericsson phone, tis only the W551 9only has 256mb memory built in, and no card slot), but you can get the next version up which takes memory cards (Sony's memory stick duo) which go upto 4gb. Fantastic little phone, brilliant sound quality.

Cant comment on camera phones - im a photographer and its safe to say my camera is slightly bigger :wink:

Ah yeah - that tractor one is superb ;)

Me thinks String Emil has a LOT to answer for.

Ohh speaking of which - I sent a pic of him (I believe it was the tractor one too) to the Sun, they published it in their 'wacky email' thing a few weeks back :lol:
