I still own the Black 80-gig Classic, in mint condition, but it just sits in a drawer in its protective cover. Occasionally, I'll charge it and listen to it, until a brick wakes me up and I realize I have all the music I need on my computer when I'm in the computer room (or when I'm in my living room, listening to my audiophile McIntosh amp, etc.).

I have no idea what to do with this old Classic, but it does make a good museum piece, I suppose.

These new-fangled iPods seem like a dying breed. What can you do with them?

Listen to music? - Hey, that's a wild idea.
Watch a movie? - Tell me it ain't so, Joe.
Send an email? - Wow! Technology has really advanced.
Send your files to the Cloud? - Hey! Another new idea!
Listen to an audio book? - Holy Cow! No other device on the market can do that!

I think I might buy a nice display case with glass and surround it in velvet backing and put the Classic and my PDA (also mint, and originally priced at $550) on display.
