get a used shuffle on ebay. its perfect for skiing. dont have to worry about breaking it and 5 hours is plenty of tunes for a day.

If you live near any resort with a club intrawest, (blue, tramblant, Whistler, Panorama) get your parents to walk around and look like a rich family, then a person will come up two you and ask you if you would like to take a tour of their hotel and as a reward they will give you a free ipod shuffle, of $120 gift cirtificate.

the only problem with a shuffle is that there's no screen

If I'm listening to my ipod I usually just have it on a playlist, with shuffle on, which is basically the same as an Ipod shuffle.
The screen really isn't that important when you've only got enough room to put on the songs you absolutely want to listen to.

I have a cheap Creative. Sometimes it randomly stops working, and there's no screen, and it only holds about 30 songs...but other than that, it's pretty dope.

I have a sandisk sansa 8GB, no hard drive (you really don't want one when skiing), movie, picture, and radio playback, and about the price of a 4GB nano.
I'd recommend it.
That iaudio one looks really awesome, I'd like to hear some reviews about it though.
