    MP3 player advice needed

    I want one for when I go away. Not way too expensive but reasonable.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks. :D

    from www.goaudio.co.uk although www.kelkoo.co.uk have a fair few site all with similar prices (£175), but i paid an extra £12 for delivery before 9am the next working day

    Aye its canny good, only played with it for about 20 mins though, there is a touch sensitive bit under the ok button, like the mouse pad on a laptop, for scrolling through the library etc.

    20 gig & 24 hr battery life etc.

    Its 5 gig and you get a choice of colour, but the battery isnt as good

    I think that one is about £20/ 30 cheaper

    and the details :

    :eek: :eek: :eek:

    looks fantastic to me, 20gb is more than enuff for any1, battery life is very good, and not only that but the battery is removable too to stop any of the ipod battery fiasco. no idea on a release date tho sorry (think within a couple of months) but it will be £200 when it does come out which is pretty reasonable considering.

    no thats just listing how many tracks would fit using those compression types. It can handle all mp3s up to 320kb/s and VBR, plus wav and pretty much everything else.
