I'm trying to figure out which one to get.
Thanks
Yes, if you format your iPod in FAT32 it can be read by PCs and Macs as an external hard drive. You won't be able to directly access your music though, they are hidden files.

One interesting thing to point up. You can make text files that can be stored in a "Notes" folder, these can be read by the iPod screen.

And yes if your primary computer is a wintel box, than the HP pod will be a better bet for you
