Should I start a fire and throw it in? Should I put it on a dummy's head pretending it's an apple, and shoot it? What do you think. It's only 512mb of space.

Give it to less fortunate people/use it as a fancy (however small) pendrive.
Nothing wrong with listening to music, either.
If all else fails, it also makes for a decent paper clip.

install rockbox on it (it should be possible) and give it to someone within your family (kid or something...) or give it (or sell for symbolic price) to someone outside it.

Don't dump it anyway. You could try using it with a set of speakers somewhere in your house, or donate it to someone. There's alot of people would love one.

Sure thing! Booting up my netbook. It has a webcam! I'll take a pic of everything, back and front.

Give it to someone who runs/bicycles. Hard drive mp3 players should not be jogged with, shortens the life of the HD, making smaller, less expensive flash based ones ideal.
