I am considering procuring a 20GB iPod in the immediate future, however, as someone who doesn't have a particular fast connection at home, and doesn't have an Apple interface at all, I am rather skittish about the entire business, and so I turn to you lot. Tell me everything you think I should know.*

[Poll #589083]

*I have also been told that once you set up one computer as your base, you can't use other computers to upload your music without losing all the contents of your iPod. I have also been told there is a way around this. Educate me kids, because my base will not be a consistent thing, like, ever.

ETA: Thank you, all of you, for your assistance!

To add to your pile-o-comments, I'm happy with my 30-gig Creative Nomad Zen Jukebox Xtra (I think I remembered all the words in that). It was $200 on Amazon last February, I think they have the 40-gig version for something similar now, and I'm cheap and don't care about clunkiness (clunkiness in size and lack of spiffy features; it's easy enough to use).
