The iPod Touch for all of the same reasons

Jailbreaking is a must though. I'm surprised Apple hasn't added SBSettings to the firmware, since I can't picture using my Touch without it.

i like the web browser of the itouch when i see some of its performance when i watch it at youtube. Well, compared to the Zune HD, it seems way better.

What is SBSettings?

I'm posting this from an iPod touch but I wouldn't mind the zune HD either. As of right now the app store aspect of the iPod is the only reason I haven't swiched to a zune yet (free texting app, facebook, gmail, scrabble?). This thing is really useful especially when you're on campus with the campus wide wifi

I do like the ui of the zune more and I'm pretty sure sound quality would be a bit better on it as well.

You're call

Cowon S9

Incredible AMOLED screen
IMO best sound quality of the group
Long battery life
Huge format support

I only sold mine for an iphone out of convenience. I miss the sound quality.

That's saying alot cause I'm no audiophile but the S9 made alot of my music way more enjoyable, it was like listening to something completely different.

If you do more than just listen music/watch movies though - ipod touch (jailbroken)

i wish they would make an S10 already and hope it has a decent web browser.

That it pretty much the only thing holding me back from the S9.

There's a couple of free texting apps (over wifi of course). The one I use is textPlus (green icon), you can use your address book with that one. Unlimited # of texts per day also.

This way I don't need a texting plan for my cell and since there is campus wide wifi, I can text all I want

If and when MS makes an app store and it becomes huge, I will look into the Zune HD lol
