I was quite pleased with my new 1.8" chiPod. It's a little thicker than a Nano but much smaller overall. It uses a standard 3.5mm headphone jack (not a 2.5mm cellphone jack). Headphone, USB and mic are on the top, not the side, of the unit. A small, low-volume speaker is on the back. Shipment took 15 days from Hong Kong.
The main thing, for me, was finding units that could directly play ASF or AMV formatted video. A lot of units only support MTV video, which, I understand is not as good. Eventually I hope more lower priced players will play Xvid MOV or WMV directly so you don;t have to go through as much of the video conversion process hassles.
Here's the item I bought. Unfortunately, after selling a ton of various chiPods, the vendor is no longer registered on Ebay.
