I have a 32gb Ipod touch in the for sale forum. Looks like the original deal has fallen through, so have a look. Its currently got 5000 songs on and is nowhere near full

Largest (disk space) is the Classic - 160gb (also available in 80gb and 120gb). Ipod Nano comes in 8gb and 16gb form, and the iPod Touch comes in 8, 16 + 32gb. Quite why you couldn't have had a look on Apple's website is beyond me, but there you go.....

As to how many songs you can fit on an iPod, it varies heavily on many factors. Main one is bit rate - if you rip everything at 128kbps you'll get loads on there, but if you rip at 192 or 320 you'll get less.

I have 5430 songs on my 60gb iPod Video and thats over half full - Apple claim 15,000 songs can fit on one of them. However, thats based on 3-4min long songs ripped @ 128k, whereas a lot of my songs are much longer than that, and I rip @ 192k (the higher the bit rate, the better quality the sound will be. The knock-on effect however is the higher the bit rate, the larger the file size, and as such, the more disk space used)

I got a Sansa made by SanDisk for crimbo cant fault it for ease of use etc its got FM radio, photos, Videos, Voice recorder etc internal 4GB but unlimited external memory via the use of those little micro SD memory cards, sound wise I would put it up against the Ipod any day, the only bad point I could find is that the headphones ant that good so buy some better ones (saying that that was also the case for the Ipod)

I done a test with the misses Ipod using the same headphones same settings and same track etc: and there was nothing in it.
