My first post on CNET forums

I want to buy an MP3 player for my sister.

Usage pattern: Mainly mp3s, occasionally for videos and photos
Requirement: Easy to use, Light and flash based, 2GB - 4GB

Options:

1. Creative Zen Neeon 2
2. Creative Zen V Plus
3. Apple ipod Nano

Please suggest which is these is a better option. Or is there any problems with any of these?

I am open to any new product suggestions as well.

Thanks.

Sansa e200 series

How about the sansa e200 series. they are durable flash based mp3 players that can also play videos and store photos. you can also listen to fm radio. They come in 2, 4, 6, and 8 GB capacites and can be expanded an additional 2gb via micro sd. i strongly recommend this line of players.

Thanks for the suggestion.

My sister doesn't like the look of the players in this series.

Its going to be either Creative, Iriver or Apple.
Looking forward to some more suggestions.

TIA

i wouldn't recommend apple they rip you off but iriver has the x20 which is decent and creative has the zen neeon 2, the zen stone plus, and the zen v plus and if you don't mind 1 more suggestion how about the cowon iaudio7

cowon iaudio7 does look very good. I'll take a look at x20 too. Thanks for helping me add these two products to my list. I was considering Creative Zen V Plus and Zen Neeon 2 till now.

Will post which player I end up buying
