I must be the last person in the world to own one, but got a smashing iPod for my birthday from the missus, and it's great!

Only thing is the earphones make my ears ache after an hour or so - any recommendations for better in ear types?

Try some of the compact "over" ear types - Sennheiser are a top brand. Much better sound quality too.

Strange as I think the ear phones are one the best in-ear type to use. Very comfy and great quality. Try their website, they have loads of after market ones on offer.

No, it will be me who is the last person to own one - don't understand the point of the things!

me neither until I borrowed one. now I don't leave anywhere without it as I have the alpine stereo and alpine adaptor.

earphones.

Don't get the apple in ear ones as the sounds is to put it politely.......shyte. there are some nice white sony ones on ebay that are really good. match it up with the ipod remote and its the nuts (again from ebay)
