is ipod video a flash-based or hdd-based?

ipod video is hdd based

needless to say..if you have the money to spend...buy lar ipod...the large storage will make u smile in your sleep...hahamine has like 5000++ songs in it...and there's still so many empty spaces...

oh my oh my.... so i guess more votes are leaning towards ipod video huh?

It isn't right to say you don't need iPod video if you don't intend to use its video playback feature.Like many have pointed out its massive storage space is a huge advantage you won't have to deal with the headache of considering what to keep and delete which makes it very convenient especially when you travel.Plus its size isn't that bulky either so its small enough to fit your pocket.Even without video the iPod still rocks,the video feature is merely a bonus...but a sweet one at that.

an ipod video can fit inside a pocket ah?

yeah. they fit inside nicely. nobody wants to design a mp3 player which doesn't fit in any pocket, rite...

woo.. now that's tempting

Just music/slim & sleek design/flash based/portable/small- iPod Nano

Want music & video/slim & sleek/hard disk based/big LCD screen/the latest iPod though- Video iPod

If u need the extra space, go video.. u get video n mp3 player, portable hdd, picture viewer and many more.. I'm still lugging my heavy 4th Gen ipod around.. thinking of upgrading to 60GB video when wallet permits..

BlueSilver, don't have to consider anymore...just get the 5th Gen iPod!

I'm using one now and very satisfied...trust me on this...the extra HDD space is really, really, really useful

actually I am struggle for the ipod nano and video as well, my point of view is below.

If I buy ipod video which offer the big capacity but how long the battery can last? I was thinking of that all the while .. if compare to external hard disk said u want to as a backup drive, this is I always want to be ..which one last longer?

so due to this reason, I will opt for nano and go for external hard disk if I want to back up or storage, of cause there is not that convenience if u are comparing ipod video and external hard disk, but with the price tag, to me.. i feel is the most economic way ..
just my 2 cents

I'll go for Ipod Video.
Heck Nano 4 gb / 6 gb , Video 30gb.

6months ago, i will go for video..but now...psp will me a better option for me

lol psp is not an option for me cos i'm not a gamer.

The main purpose of my ipod would be to play music cos i already have an external hard disk for back up purposes but of course having a video one would be a bonus.

So , whatcha waiting for ?

lol... yeah well ok then.. case close.. IPOD VIDEO wins the battle. LOL
