I have recently bought a 15 GB IPOD and I do wish that I have bought the 20 GB one.
The main reason is that the 15GB ($299) doesn't come with the docking cradle, case, and headphone remote.
Each of the perhiperals are around $39 each. So if you buy the 20 GIG model ($399), you basically get 5 GB for free.

For those of you who are thinking of rushing down to your local computer super store and buy that nice hard drive with the rebate incentives, DON'T.
I was just about to do this since the super store in my neighborhood had a 250 GB SATA drive in a retail box for just about the price I could order one through the mail.
Before opening the box I was curious about the warranty, I looked and looked but no mention was made on the box. Lucky for me I decided not to open the box before I made a call to the Vendor's technical support.
It appears that there IS a difference in buying a Retail Kit vs an OEM bare drive, TWO years in warranty!!!
Most OEM drives come with a 3 year warranty, Retail kits only come with 1 year.
Shame on you Maxtor and Western Digital!!!
