pmpin’: anything but ipod’s mp3 player buyer’s guide
If you’re planning on buying an MP3 player but your knowledge only goes as far as “iPod, iPod Nano, iPod Touch, iPod shuffle, everything else…”, then you should check out anything but iPod’s guide to buying mp3 players. The article breaks down the discussion by reminding us of the essential aspects of an MP3 player, such as sound quality, physical specs i.e. size, battery life and storage capacity, and of course price. At the same time, the guide also adds other items that may not be as essential but should be considered nonetheless, such as controls, video support or connection method.
The article also uses specific MP3 player models (other than the iPod) as examples to help you narrow down your options; last time I checked there were about 1,523,907 models of MP3 players out there. You’ll probably end up buying an iPod, but hey, at least you can say you thought things through.

I have owned 2 mp3 players and neither of them were iPods.
I feel that iPods are over hyped and very limiting for the following reasons.Connectivity is limited,audio file types is limited and also the Gb storage is very limited.
I certainly have not been disapointed by my non iPod kit.
If you went to buy a car would you look at just one make?
So why here in Australia do many stores only have one make,I can only think that our low population numbers don’t generate enough sales to jusyify stocking different products.
iBought a GPX MW3836, Suffix No E1. 1GB built in memory, officially upgradeable with up to a 1GB MMC or SD but in reality it supports SDHC. I use a 4GB SDHC in it, no idea of its maximum SDHC capacity support.
