The difference in the regular iPod is the things you can't see on the site without either a bit of reading or watching that "special presentation" video. The new ipod has stuff like easier, live searching for those with huge libraries, games (which btw look very fun, and now I know why there was that speculation of the nvidia chip for the ipod. they look really smooth), movies, brighter screen, more battery life, etc.
In regards to the Zen Vision, yea that was my original impression of it. However, they're coming out with a new Zen Vision W, they have the Vision:M (basically the iPod rival), and they have the new Vision V's which are pretty cool imo. With that said, the Vision W still looks like its only an upgrade, and the price hits too hard to even consider.
