Digital Trends

On today's show I discuss the unnecessarily complex process of choosing the right flash based MP3 player for both exercise and regular use. We look at the offerings from Apple, iRiver, Rio, Sony, and Creative. I look at past device support, unseen caveats, and feature set. Which one rocks my socks? Listen to find out.

Recent product introductions include the Dell Dimension XPS 600 gaming PC, the Creative X-Fi sound card line, and Apple's Mighty Mouse. I also review the Creative Nano.

I get off on a tangent in which I discuss the metamorphosis of Apple from a Mac maker to a PC maker, incorporating more PC-like features. I'll clarify briefly in next week's podcast.

To wrap it up I propose a new online gaming peripheral - betcha don't want to be on the receiving end of this one!
