...Many competitors sell products that are similar in size to the iPod nano, with features the nano doesn't yet have including video playback, voice recording and an FM tuner. Nevertheless, the cost has been the same, or just slightly discounted. SanDisk is one of the largest manufacturers of flash memory - the solid-state storage chips found in MP3 players, digital cameras, cell phones and USB drives - so it can compete seriously on price, where Creative or iRiver just can't. The $250 that would buy you a 4GB iPod will get you an 8GB Sansa...

The ring is raised a little too high to easily tap the four buttons surrounding it, but that sort of interface issue tends to fade away with constant...

Such so-called hyperthermia treatments have been tried in the past, with little success - in part because it was difficult to isolate the tumor from the normal tissue around it.

The company plans to have more lines by the holidays, along with a selection of running clothes with built-in weather- and sweat-proof nano holsters. The nano itself costs between $149 to $249. If you don't own a nano, you could easily set yourself back around $300 for the whole system. Perhaps it takes this sort of financial investment, instead of a series of hollow promises, to get yourself onto the road...
