[P1] OT: Next best "iPod" for people without FW ???

[Guy McMickle]

The iPod mini comes with 4GB of storage, but for $50 more you can get 
the 15GB.  The iPod can be used with the USB 2.0 cable on a USB 1.1 
machine, just much slower transfer rates than 2.0 or firewire.  Why 
doesn't she just add a firewire card to her current machine?
