Running is just as bad as the hard disk from the hard disk's point of view as constant shaking...
+1. There's tolerance built in but some apple stores specifically say that if you run, the 30 or 60gb hard disk is not for you.

As long as we're talking iPods, I have a couple of questions for those who have the shuffle:

1) can you put it in some kind of repeat mode so that it plays about 20 tracks, and when it gets to #20, it goes back to #1 and continues to play the loop endlessly?

2) can it play while plugged in? (as opposed to running on battery)

The reason I ask is the CD player I've been using for my company's on-hold music has died, and we need a new one. I figured maybe I'd be better off with a cheap iPod, but it has to be able to play in a continuous loop on it's own without ever running out of battery life. I want to put it in the telephone closet and have it play for the next 5 years untouched, except for occasionally changing the music once every 6 months.
