With regards to packages look at i-river and also Creative for comparisons. The ipods have always been greedy on battery life.

New iPod 40Gb has 12 hour battery life. Plus you can get a 4AA battery booster on the back which adds more life.
Also, believe it or not, you're actually wrong on the price mate. Sorry. I sat down with my Boss yesterday as we're off to Dallas next week. Frys have the iPod 20Gb at $294 (+GST at 15% which makes $338.00) and in the UK they're £219 inc VAT.
Current exchange rate is £1.87 = £1 so the USA item costs £180 and the UK Item costs £219.
Then taking into account warranty (the USA warranty's not valid) plus customs charges as it is over the personal limit (so add 17.5% VAT plus Duty) it's not as cheap as you think.... !
