    Those companies networks are still connected to the Internet. SIPRNET is NOT.

    Every Android BOGO sale involved an older, nearly-outdated phone that they wanted to clear from inventory to make room for new ones. Which older, nearly-outdated WP7 phone is involved with this BOGO?

    And then Creative almost had a monopoly on the 1.3" 4GB drives. Apple got enough to ship some iPods with then, then switched to a similar 5GB model when it became available.

    A lot of the Muvo2s were actually gutted by photographers who wanted the drives for the CompactFlash slots of their DSLRs, since the biggest flash CFs at the time were like 512MB. They usually just swapped the Muvo's microdrive for a flash CF and resold the player on eBay as a lower capacity device.

    That 2001 iPod didn't feature a tiny 1.3" microdrive and an easily pocketable form-factor, which is the 5GB model I thought you were talking about.

    If I remember correctly, the 4GB microdrive (in CompactFlash media form-factor) Creative Muvo2 was out before the first microdrive iPod, although not by much. It's certainly pocketable. Heck, I still use mine from time to time when travelling due to the long battery life and tiny size.
