my bday is coming up soon, i have a rio 250 mp3 cdp, i like it a lot, but i hate having to carry my cds with me, i use cdrws in UDF packet write and they get scracthed sooo easily.. and so on... but anyway, i am seriously considering a nomad jukebox 3 20gig from circuit city ($300) or ebay $(??).. i was going to get an ipod, but its too expensive, and i have heard that the njb3 is better sounding, as well as the ipod not having a lineout?? i have about 12gigs of music at altpreset standard LAME + EAC and some WMA. the ipod doesnt work with wma, and some cds i recorded a while ago with wma i lost or scratched (im REALLY bad with cds...) so i cant re record them in mp3 for the ipod which would really annoy me. i have a few questions, will i really have to worry about dropping the player or jarring it??? has anyone had any problems? (my 250 has taken a drop before, onto carpet). the njb3 is like the same size as my 250 so im not too worried about size (i carry lots in my pockets). can i replace the HD if i run out of space (just a laptop one right?). how is the equalizer?? (for anemic phones). i use the eq on 250 a lot, add a few db to the sub 50hz freq when im walking around to counter the cord noise. this is important to me, to have GOOD equalization, not sonymegabass crap. i use my EX70s and my senn 280pros with this, and sometimes my koss 50s. welll what do you think? should i just get the ipod? should i stop wasting my money?? should i wait for something better to come out?? thanks
