My two digital audio players (VictorReader Stream and iPod Video) have become firmly attached to my daily routine.
The Stream is excellent for podcasts and audiobooks, but clunky and irritating for music. As it is specifically designed for the blind and visually impaired, it has no screen and doesn't play videos. I like being able to speed up people who speak agonizingly slowly and slow down people who speak a zillion words per minute. It's easier to operate while wearing gloves, and it doesn't shut down when it gets too cold.
I use the iPod for music, videos, and a couple of podcasts that are released in a format that the Stream can't use. I don't use it as much in the winter as I do in the summer because it doesn't work outside when it's colder than 15F.
