creative or iRiver if u want features...iPod if u want looks...i would suggest 2 look into the new sony mini disc player...it plays mp3s now...and optical media r safer than the drives they use on HDD players...most of my friends complain of iPods formatting themselves and they end up losing all their songs...no such issues with optical media...the mini discs can store abt 10 hours of music as far as i know...and they're tiny!!! also, if ya post ur budget, ppl might b able 2 help ya better....

A nice 128MB-256MB solid state Flash-based MP3 player, be it any brand. I would suggest you look at the Creative ones. They've got great build quality. Check out the MuVo series. Their starting prices fall withing your budget range.

yeah i agree with enoonmai...creative flash players r really nice and reliable too....dont go 4 the iPod shuffle...it's a big waste of money...c if u can get the creative muvo micro in ur budget...it's available in 256MB, 512MB and 1GB capacities....the 256MB should fit in ur budget...and with a bit of luck, u should b able 2 squeeze in the 512MB too...but im sayin this based on prices here in the US....

Hmm. gr8 and good sugs, well frnds thx for ur advice....
