Dedicated Music Player

Reading Matt's post, "Why I Don't Use A Dedicated Music Player", with great interest. A dedicated Music Player is something I keep coming back to, time and time again but never actually get around to buying. For much the same reason as Matt; in the cold light of day, I can't quite see the point! I don't listen to a lot of music by myself away from my desk; mostly while running, driving, or occasionally on a commute. I like to track my music with last.fm and that's difficult with an mp3 player.
