One compelling entry of the past month is Dell's DJ Player with Dell Jukebox powered by Musicmatch ($249 for 15 GB; $299 for 20 GB). First, the bad news: at a hefty 7.6 oz.

Although the political decisions have yet be made, the Army is reportedly operating on the assumption that 100,000 American troops will have to remain in Iraq at least until March...
...songs in order to appreciate Hornby’s feelings about them. In fact, seeing as no song ever means the same thing to different people, the CD might almost be a distraction from the universality (for music fans) of Hornby’s sentiment. But you could always download the songs if you really want to hear exactly what he’s talking about, including tracks by Aimee Mann, Bruce Springsteen and The Bible...
