MP3 Player

[naved.islam14]

I was thinking of buying an MP3 player, preferably from DealExtreme or PriceAngels or anyone's place with global free shipping. I was thinking of http://www.priceangels.com/The-Sixt...B-MP4-with-Clock-Function-Green--s831735.html this little knock off. Any suggestions?

Dealextreme and priceangels are both crooks in my opinion.
These `mp4` players have very bad build and will break very easily.
My advice is to find a mobile phone. every singel models out in the past 4 years or so can play MP3 and have a lithium battery that will last some time if you put them on airplane mode.

Ahh..nooo. Magsor is correct, very cheaply built and well...you pay for what you get.
They sell those here for like 100pesos ($10) in Market Fairs in Mexico.
Cough up a few bucks more and get something that is decent and can last:
http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Sansa...F8&qid=1354681020&sr=8-4&keywords=sandisk+mp3

8GB, colors, small, and not-heavy.
Sorry, no touch screen. Because touching sucks, right?

@Yumi - I would recommend getting the 4GB one [being the cheapest of the 3 choices], buy a microSD then rockbox it. After that, you'll be set!
that's what I did anyway, the only downfall is the lack of album art if you look at it anyway. I thought about using my phone as well, but decided not to and to keep my sansa clip as a dedicated music player.
