A good MP3 player?

[Girly]

My dh wants an mp3 player for his birthday in Aug looking out for, I do know about ipods but they are quite expensive.

Can anyone give me any tips please!!!

Girly xx

please scrap the 'looking out for bit! doh

i have a philips one, it is the size of a credit card and about 1/2 inch thick. it is very good and i would recommend it. its white and has a neck strap you can use as well, think was about 120-130 pounds and holds about 1000 songs
ill try and get the model number if you want it

philips mp3

thanks sweetmonkey!!

have found it at John Lewis for £99 its on special!!

everyone i know has i pods but to be honest i find this just as good and easier to use

Can always rely on mumsnet for good advice on shopping

sweetmonkey, does it run on normal software?

yeah you get a disk with it which you load onto computer and then just load yr songs onto it and transfer to the player, you get manual, disk which has programmes on, lead to connect to comp,power lead, neck strap and sticker things,if you want to snazzy it up a bit

I have a Creative Zen Touch (mp3 jukebox type thingy & its brill)
10,000 tracks - more battery power & not as expensive as an Ipod
