128MB Creative Muvo for jogging

40G iPod for everything and its worth every cent.

I've a Dell DJ30 - plenty of storage and is pretty much a cut and dry MP3/WMA player.
No frills but the price is great - $200 when on sale.

That combined with a nice Sony cassette adapter makes for a great commute in the car - only $17 shipped at Buy.com

Don't bother with most FM transmitters - the overall sound quality is much lower than that of a decent cassette adapter. When driving through large cities, you'd have a hard time finding a free and clear frequency (I do in Chicago) not to mention the weak signal that you already have being overtaken by other stations as you drive.

I have a 3G 10g Ipod (almost 2 years old now) that I haven't used in a while. The battery on it has completely died, so I have to use an external battery pack with 4 AA's if I want it to work, which makes it too bulky to carry around everywhere. Anyone interested in buying it cheap

? My next unit will probably be an Iriver.

you know, you can easily replace the battery in the iPod ...
there are lots of aftermarket vendors for that now

I forgot about this thread.... That Samsung MP3 player crapped out on me about a month, so it went back to Best Buy... And one of the main things that stopped me from buying an iPod was the battery, but now thanks to chottoED, I see I can buy a replacement without paying Steve Jobs for the pleasure....

Now which should I get - an iPod mini or the Creative Zen Micro...?
