i have ben looking around and was looking at the nano 8gb but i don't want to be a fanboi so i want to know if anyone has other experiences with other mp3 players

i don't particularly want a big screen but i do want to be able to load it up

another feature i would be looking for is a long ass battery time

Creative Zen Neon 2 http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=213&subcategory=214&product=15609
Creative Zen V Plus http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=213&subcategory=214&product=15306

Best part is, no itunes.

I always liked my i-River, and it has stood the test of time.
Friend got a new-ish one and likes it.

iPod, stop being a nonfanboi kthx.

it's not about being a nonfanboi, it's about getting more for less, and no itunes.

The irivers are even better value than creatives.

zune!

I bought a Toshiba gigabeat and it has been really f***ing awesome.

ok too late.. when i decided to spend 400 on something that plays music only.. i decided to get a n73 and have a phone and camera and 4gb mem with mp3 player

and i got it off ebay just then for 405 + delivery

win win

ps god bless dodgy hong kong ebay dealers

yeah i was about to reply with a comedy sony K800i post, thinking it had to be a hardcore mp3 player

but you beat me to it

should have gone the k800 though :p

i was looking at the k800i and k810i but i like the phat cam on the n73

they are exactly the same camera.. and the k800 has a better flash

n73 is a 3.2meg cam
k800 is 2meg with led flash...
also i think you can only go to 1gb mem on the SE's and the n73 i have heard you can go to 4gb

ah my k800i is a 3.2mp camera... dunno where you're getting your info from

i have to use fancy M2 memory which is like 1/4 the size of the memory that goes in your phone, i dunno what advantages it carries over normal SD s***

apart from the advantage for sony that all their new phones run it

you should have gone into a shop and looked at them IRL

I just got myself a Nokia 6280. It's pretty spiffy but the ringing/alarm doesn't seem loud enough to me.

you lose because you bought a slide phone :p

same goes for flip phones

yeah i did do a trip into town and looked at both.. but the guy was quoting ridiculous prices and very unhelpful approach including when a package came in he just ended our conversation and said.. so i'll leave you with it..

anyway i'm over shops

anyway i got the fooker for 405 so i'm happy

you lose because your phone is a phone

slide and flip are gay

My sister got an iRiver H20 (20gb,fm,pics) about a yr ago. iRivers have to be the best value players on the market.

But... I'd have to say their sound and screen quality isn't up to par with the iPod and Zen players.

You get what you pay for.

becarfeul of n73s connecting to the internet

have heard a few peeps have had dramas with them running up bills, by connecting to the internet when u dont want it to

i have a n73 for my work phone and the interface for getting to mp3s is a bit clunky (i like to select my songs)

also, nokia sux for using that gay jack, rather than a 3.5ml for the headphones

sound is good

I use a Creative Vision:M as my primary player for tunes on the go. I'd strongly recommend it. I'd say it's better than iPod, due to lack of iTunes and it supports a wide range of codecs (including Divx and Xvid).

You can buy my 3 month old 80gig video ipod if you want.

spook i'm in cairns.. we dont have to worry about running up internet bills cause we have no internet

itunes is great

cept for some reason its video playing interface has always been dongs
