I used to go through iPods every six months because the hard drives would not be up to any sort of vigourous running. They would start skipping after only a few weeks and things would go steadily downhill from there, eventually deeming themselves inoperable.

Really? That's too bad to hear. I've run the equivalent of countless marathons with my iPod, inclines, interval training, sprints, you name it, and not one problem at all in 3 years....
