What player is right for me?

Sep 11, 2005 8:03AM PDT

Hey everybody, I need an MP3 player. I gotta few boundries, though.

Price: $100-$150
Memory: 512MB - 1 Gig (Probably a flashplayer or microdrive)
Features: These don't really matter, but I need a voice recorder
Other: Needs a screen, color or not, and respectable battery life.

What would you reccommend?

if you want a litlle budget, go for the creative zen nano. its got everything you want and on that price. plus, it comes in 10 colors. but if you want something REALLY cool, you should get the
Mobiblu DAH 1500i. it has everything you say, is that price, and is a 1 inch cube, about the size of a quarter. and yeah, they both have screens. hope that helps
