Someone at work won a 30GB model at a vendor's Xmas party. He never used it and sold it to someone in his department a couple weeks ago. I was helping that guy learn how to use it when he decided he need the money for something else, so I bought it from him for $200.
The front of it is the same dimensions as my 3rd Gen 20GB iPod. It's quite a bit thinner - 11 mm vs 15 mm. It's noticeably lighter as well.
The screen quality is excellent. I was suprised at how easy it is to read subtitles in videos considering how small the display is. I've put a few music videos on it from iTunes store, plus some Scissor Sisters and Aqua videos I converted from DVD using [link|http://handbrake.m0k.org/|Handbrake]. I've also converted TRON and have The Young Ones, Aeon Flux and Depeche Mode in queue.
I'm still using the old one for the car as my iTrip doesn't work with new iPod - the remote control connector which powers the iTrip is gone on the new models. There's a new iTrip that connects to the dock connector, but I plan to get something like the [link|http://www.neocaraudio.com/prod-ion.html|Neo iON] and leave the old iPod in the car all the time.
