Re: Which MP3 player?

I would second that - I have the slightly older MuVo N200, but the 1GB size, and I use it all the time. Holds about 20 hours of music (which should be enough for anyone) and uses AAA's, so you can...

Re: Evolution...new poll

They are still dragonflies, but a decrease in size by 700% seems like quite a transition. Dragonflies adapted early, and the only further adaptation needed was size. Same with cockroaches.
