phr, I disagree with your statement about Flash.

While it's true that the cost of Flash memory has been decreasing, to say that it will make HD obsolete in the next year or even the next 3 years is unrealistic. Flash is nice, but it's not perfect, and it's not going to get THAT cheap any time soon either. Unless you can show me a 60GB Flash (some of us want more than 10 songs) player that is priced competitively with similar HD alternatives, I don't consider Flash to be a viable alternative.

Two years ago if i told you there would be mp3 players with 8 gigs of flash memory would you have believed that?  Of course not.  In 3 years the HDD Mp3 player will be dead, flash will have reached a storage level that will equal or surpass any hard drives you can fit into a player.

I got kind of bored of my Neuros and ended up buying an iAudio X5, but I'm sure theres still people looking for a good deal on an N2.

I couldn't wait any longer for a new player.  Everybody I knew was getting brand new iPods, Zens, etc.  They were all playing video and viewing their pictures, while I was still stuck with my Neuros II that was twice the size and weight of theirs, had a smaller screen, was greyscale, and hadn't had any firmware updates in months.  I'm sorry to say, but I've switched to an iAudio X5.  I remain a Neuros fan, and may still purchase the N3, but NA is going to have to pull out all the stops to really convert any users at this point.

i saw an mp3 player like that at stereo advantage when i was searching around for my first one a few years ago (bought an archos jukebox eventually, sucked).  you could pop the HD right out and plug it into the pc or something like that.  maybe the n3 could have something like that, but with a usb/firewire (male) connector on the hd, to elimate the need to carry wires everywhere.

hey, waterbrother, stop complaining.  do you have any idea how good of a deal this is, and your complaining about it? they didnt have to offer it at all, and even this cheap.  so i dont think they should have to apoligize about a lot of people taking advantage of a great deal
