It's probably not as good as the thing you're looking at, but I've had a lot of fun with it. Great for practicing. And I'm not really a tone snob, so the sounds it gets are plenty good enough for me.
I thought about buying a Pandora a few years ago. I think The Nuge owns one. Wango tango! ;)
I was going to buy a cheaper Line 6 model called a Toneport. The damn software neede to run it eats up an assload of memory, though. The Pod XT runs through a USB port and I can use it like a soundcard. Now if I can just learn how to play leads that don't sound like a little kid falling down over and over. ;)
What's cool about the Pod is you can download free sounds off the web, and they just released a free update with additional amps/effects. :) You can use it with software, or just stick with the hardware (when it comes to editing, that is).
I'd like to have an old 12 string vox like Brian Jones always played. Instead, I have an Electra 12 from the '70s. It looks just like a Hagstrom II, which is cool too. I'm thinking about putting Tele pick-ups in it though... it's just not chimey enough. :/
