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.*

*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!

I recently received the ipod nano for my birthday and the guy at the apple store told me that the nanos don't have a hard drive, so it's less vulnerable to damage. I really wished that they hadn't discontinued the minis and I hope that I don't live to dislike mine.

In addition, currently alot of the apple stores are decreasing the prices of the older ipods by $50. I don't know if that's an incentive as the older ones are being discontinued, but it's there.

Good luck!
