I navigate my large library fairly well on the classic. It's just a matter of
memorizing the order things are in. I also have a nanno, but I find it doesn't
get the battery life that the classic does, and I like being able to carry all
my music and movies in my pocket. :)
I also have an iPad and an iPhone, but again, neither device lets me put all my
music, apps, etc, on it.
