Jensen 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2004 I currently use the Rio Cali 256 (in conjunction with a 512 SD card). I prefer flash memory mp3 players as opposed to the HD ones for when I work out or practice at the rink by myself. They don't skip and honestly, you don't really need 4 gigs of music on a mp3 player.for ~$100, I'd go with the Rio s35s, look for them on Amazon or eBay as they are priced in that range...some sellers also throw in some extra memory cards to sweeten the deal.-Gene Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Z-Unit14 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2004 I'm also in the market for an MP3 player and all my friends have been opting to go the Sony Minidisc route. I like the ones that I have borrowed and I like the idea of having the music on a disc so you don't have to listen to the same tunes over and over again without re-loading the thing onto your computer.

Eagles39 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2004 I just got an Ipod. I got one that holds 3,700 songs but it was about $350 when I was done buying everything I needed. I like it but, I think I would have been better off getting something smaller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stampeder 2 Report post Posted April 18, 2004 He means that like a 3rd Gen 10 GB one would have been fine. Which is probably the case for me too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crosskore 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2004 The ipod looks bigger then most of the mp3 players I've seen. I would like one that fits into my pocket without mush of a buldge or anything. The pics on the site show people holding it, and I've seen much smaller. Fit in your palm smaller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perry94 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2004 I find that the ipod's bass ain't that great....maybe it's just the stock headphones, but for 300+, I'd expect enuff bass to blow an eardrum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fonya 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2004 I would highly suggest this-Creative Muvo SlimIt is perfect, small, lightweight, radio and lots of memory. I got the 265mb one and I have 65 songs and counting. Also, I think there coming out with a 512mb version and if thats not enough memory, you should be looking at ipods and not mp3 players. It also comes with a rechargeable battery and some software but I use the drag and drop. If you need anymore questions just ask me.EDIT- On the website it says it comes in 512mb and 1gb. I should have got with the times. Also people have said that the battery cover is filmsy...i agree but you only open it once(to put battery in) and thats all you need.Heres some more linksCreative Muvo Slim- europe...more info and picturesReview and Video that shows how small it really is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
