My memory is sketchy as to where I bought the Companion but I'm almost sure it's either Buy.com or Amazon.com. It wasn't a closeout or one time deal it was just on sale for a great price. You'd be able to find similar deals on Apple product, but oh I forgot you can only buy Apple products in THEIR store. I guess thats the way Steve Jobs prefers it with him being a control freak.

I like how you defend the people (read sheep) buying mp3 players without a screen. What good is a playlist when the 1Gb of mp3s would take some hours to cycle through, and Im not so sure it wouldn't repeat some of the same tracks more than once before it played through every song. Dumb idea, and I stick by it. only a Mac groupie would think this was a good idea.

...you can only buy Apple products in their store...

I'm sure a you think that, but BestBuy, CompUSA, Amazon.com, MacMall, SmallDog Electronics, Costco (occasionally), Fry's, and a host of other retailers would beg to disagree.

This is just more of your ignorant pontificating.
