"When I say Disk based I am referring to the hard drive music player, give me some credit."
OK, your account has been credited... It just never crossed my mind that you didn't mean CD's!
You certainly have followed the field far closer than I have, I thought that it went straight from Walkman to iPod. My interest in listening to music afoot is nil so cassette or CD players did the job in the office. My interest in Apple is nil also as I never met one I really liked but have used quite a few. This iPad is the most likable but it can be frustrating as all get out and that largely revolves around it's lack of file management. I'm hooked on tablets for couch computing and when I got this one it really was the only viable choice, but I bet 18 months from now there will be some serious options. XPmobile?
