>>I think Apple's iPod was the first or one of the first to use the micro hard drives. If I'm not mistaken most of the mp3 players were solid state. Apples use of hard drives was revolutionary and risky.<<

Doren -

The first MP3 players to use hard drives were from Creative, if I'm not mistaken. They used full-sized 3.5 inch drives, and were enormous. Didn't really catch on.

You are correct that the iPod was the first mp3 player to use a micro hard drive.
