Per Jeffrey Kaplan:

36 gigs of media, 12 gigs of data.

Having all my media on it is a Nice-To-Have, but not a religious
issue.

I do, however, want at least 10 gigs discretionary space for data
transport.

You're the second one to point out to me that hard drives and
cell phones aren't exactly a marriage made in heaven.

Maybe my cell phones lead an easier life than most.... but I
don't *think* they get any more abuse than my iPod.

I guess dropping is the most obvious exposure. I've managed to
drop this particular iPod 3 times so far - each time causing an
extension of some screen artifacts but no obvious disc issues.

Couple years back, I established experimentally that a
prior-generation iPod will *not* survive a five-foot drop to a
concrete floor. -)
