When you see what the Jukebox and Zen offers, I don't see where they can justify the price difference.For me, 4 ounces lighter was well worth the price difference.

it is easily $100 more than it has to be. When you see what the Jukebox and Zen offers, I don't see where they can justify the price difference
The Jukebox and the Zen both "offer" a considerably larger form factor, right?
There's a reason why the iPod is so small. It uses a 1.8" hard drive, and is well-miniaturized. I'm pretty sure the 1.8" hard drives cost more, byte-for-byte, than the laptop (2.5") drives you find in other MP3 portables.
Then, as many people have mentioned before, the whole iPod + iTunes + powered FireWire system works very nicely. I'm not surprised that they want to make a little money off of offering the BEST hard-disk-based player on the market.
