I've had this iPod Touch 64gb for three months now and love it. I load all my music as lossless ALAC, and average about 3 CD's per GB. The interface is so much better than the wheel, and I thought the wheel was pretty slick in its day. The sound is very clean. (I'm using Ety ER4's)  I only gave the SQ 4 stars because 5 is reserved for the best of the best portable rigs. OTOH, the UI is as good as it gets so it gets a 5.Battery is ok, especially considering I run ALACs, but the Cowon D2+ reigns supreme there. It is pricey though, but it is just sooo usable in every way and just plain fun.
