Alright, I think that solves that for me. Since I'll be using it for jogging, no matter how impact resistant it is, it doesn't seem like a good idea

Well not primarily. I'll be using it for road trips with the gf, and the web surfing function seems like something I might be able to use quite a bit

It looks that way lol. Now the big question. It seems like every year they improve the model and usually make it cheaper. When does that usually happen?

Considering iTunes has dropped the DRM on their songs, I can wholeheartedly recommend you getting an iPod (preferrably an iTouch).

i pod touch blows the zune out of the water for what it can do. I LOVE THE CRAP out of my ipod touch. I have a ton of games/movies on it, it's worth every penny i paid for it.

If you're using it in the car, you'll have a lot more options with the iPod for in-car integration so that you can control the iPod through the radio. I don't think the Zune has any support for this and still has to be used via FM transmitter or regular stereo output. Pain in the ass, and not as good for sound quality.

The new version of all the iPods were just released a few months ago, so I think you've got awhile before anything new comes out.
