Options for Replacing Your Older iPod
Low End Mac's Adam Robert Guha says:
With such a choice of models, which makes the most sense? Is replacing your old, 3G model with a new iPod classic with 80 GB of storage really the best bet if you only have 4 GB of music that you listen to regularly?
How About Buying Used?
Buying used is a good option if you don't need the features of the latest iPods. It's an especially good option with iPod nanos, since they are flash-based and therefore much more durable. Essentially, there's a better chance that a year-old flash-based iPod has stood up to someone's abuse than a year-old 5G iPod.

iPod touch In-car Video Hack
apple-touch.com says:
For some, an in-car install is an FM transmitter and maybe an iPod cradle that clips onto a vent. In this Infiniti FX35, however, it consists of a very slick hack of the Apple AV cable, which feeds music and video directly through the factory-fit radio and onto the aftermarket pop-up screen on the dash-top and a flip-up DVD screen in the rear.
Check out the video of the setup in action, after the cut…

Why Microsoft’s Zune is Still Failing
Roughly Drafted's Daniel Eran Dilger says:
Last winter, I detailed why Microsoft’s iPod Killer would fail miserably. This year, Microsoft will fail again, but for a new set of reasons. It is not obvious that the company has figured this out itself. Here’s why the Zune will fail in 2007, and how Microsoft is painting a fraudulent portrait of interest that doesn’t exist.
