Agreed. I bought mine new in '06, and I will never sell it. It now has a new battery (easy replacement, just don't break the headphone jack connector in the process) and a 120gb hard drive. Might go SSD when the prices drop low enough.

 
I miss my 5.5G, I still haven't quite re-captured the magic it made with my FX700s. I have come close now with the PHA1 but not quite there plus not as portable. I had a huge external vcap dock with all silver cabling on my iModded 5.5G and realized that I liked it better out of the headphone out with the JVCs so I sold it off because I felt I had too much $ into it for the SQ I was getting if I didn't really need the added power. Now I have pretty much the best of both worlds but still flirt with the idea of picking up another 5.5G because of that particular synergy. But for now I like the added battery life of the Classics, as well as the added storage capacity. I agree that a big SSD on a 5.5G along with a fresh battery could go a long way to resolving both of these issues which is why I am still not "done".
 
Pictures; I posted my PHA1-base transportable rigs recently, here's my current actual portable rigs:

That's awesome! I always said the iPod Nano is a waste of money, but that actually looks quite functional.

Its interesting to see how people travel up the food chain of headphone listening.  Some get a crazy set of headphone, while having cheap amplification.  Some get crazy amps, with cheap headphones.  Some buy crazy DAPs with cheap universal IEM.  I'm not judging, its just neat to see how people go about this stuff.
 
Oh, right, then there is Rudi........
