An ebay seller for the drive is telling me that some PC owners have problems with the drive’s 4096 byte sector size. That’s greek to me. Can anyone clarify for me?

By the way, the cheapest prices I’ve found are here:

A 64GB iPod Touch would be nice though :)

Gigabytes to music doesn’t matter anymore, since it’s practically impossible to even determine how many songs will fit on a 240GB+ storage device. For video, yes, that kind of storage space will come in handy. But I think in a few years even that won’t be an issue – 2.5″ drives will eventually reach the 2TB size, enough for 200 hours of 1080p content.

That makes the 100 GB in my 2710p seem rather tiny. I’d have to look up the specs on my drive, but I suspect the taller height of these higher capacity drives would not permit their installation in my tablet.
