170
I have a 770, a 4thG iPod (30gb 'photo') and a Macbook. Going by that information, you might assume that I'm open to Apple's new offerings, but lemme tell you, every one of the new iPods is wrong for me.
The Touch has a screen I refuse to do any surfing or reading on, at that size and resolution. Nor does 16gb fit enough of my music. The iPod classic is excessively large (80gb? I'll never fill half) and the screen is still inadequate for movies, which makes it a waste (i don't need that much real estate just to scroll thru my songs). The nano is redundant if you have a real iPod.
When my current iPod breaks, I'll go looking for a deal on an old iPod (just saw one on sale for $150. I've come to realize that even a color screen on an iPod is a waste, at least for me, because I turn off the backlight the entire time to save the battery, and in that state song names are perfectly readable but you can hardly tell it's a color screen. If you just want to play 30gb of music, what does it matter?).
