Sorry to be the ghost at the wedding, but one word of warning about Apple iPods: they're very attractive to theft. The head phones are immediately recognisable (they're bright white), and while you're bopping along you might be less aware of your street surroundings. So, be careful about the risk of street robbery.

Take the word of one who knows, I got mine stolen off me after about a month.

I got a replacement and now use inconspicuous (i.e. black) head phones. The Apple ones are rubbish, anyway.

And following Weelittledrummer's suggestion, I'm gonna load Blues Rags & Hollers on it and bop away to that now.
