IPod 5th generation?

Question

so i currently have the blue ipod nano, which I'm VERY happy with.

i wouldn't really be asking this question but, my mom is looking for an ipod (and our family cant exactly run out and spontaneously buy ipods).so i was wondering about buying the big ipod (5th generation, and yes i know its not current) and giving her my nano.

my reason for buying the older ipod is that it could possibly be cheaper, and i would like more music/video space.

so my final question is, where could i buy a reasonably priced ipod?

and i'd prefer not ebay.

oh and if you could, pros and cons of ipod 5th generation

10 points!

Ipod 5th generation is awesome and very reliable.  It just doesn't have the applications and cool touch screen that the new one's have. You can buy an 80 gig 5th generation ipod for around 250.00 now.  Or check out www.ksl.com at search the classifieds and see the electronics section for music players, there are some really good deals there, I was just searching because mine just went out on me after 4 good years.  But, this is a local Utah site, so you might have to convince someone to take a check or a money order through the mail or use paypal online.  never trust ebay for an ipod.
