I am looking for a replacement iPod, and would like some recommendationd. I had the old iPod Nano, which did not support video. It looks like the new Nano has video, which I do not need, but if everything else is great (ease of use, etc.) I guess I can just ignore the video feature. Also, it looks like the new Nano is motion sensitive. Does anyone have trouble with it while running?

Any other suggestions on what to use? Something cost-effective, without a lot of bells and whistles. I looked at the Shuffle, but it does not have a display, which I think would make it difficult to find the songs I want to have playing.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
I also wondered about the newest nano and whether it would shuffle on it's own. If you shake it, it randomly shuffles music. I have the 3rd generation ipod. (The squarish one) and I got it on ebay. There are a lot of them there and you could get a pretty good deal, maybe a great deal after Christmas. I didn't need the video, but did you know you can download yoga and other video workouts? No need to use the dvd player. There are also some workouts at Graehme Street's site that you can put on an ipod. I use the video now for that.
