Can't recall (old age)if info on this unit has been posted? If it has...sorry.

The Toshiba Gigabit, which I fondled behind closed doors at CES, is a boxy 20GB player that has a minimalist stainless-steel finish and is about the size of the larger iPod. The most important improvement is battery life. The Gigabit, due out in June for about the same price as Apple's 20GB version, claims an impressive 11 hours of continuous tuneage -- much longer than my iPod (which hums along for about half that time on continuous playback). But the Gigabit has the same problem as all of the ersatz iPods: inelegant scrolling. The buttons are placed on the side and don't offer any easy way to plow through the 5,000 or so songs you'll be loading up.
