Sounds for all brands of MP3players has come to a standstill...pick the higher ends of a creative...iRiver.....apple and compare...all the same...trebble...bass...eq all can be adjusted......just dun compare peanuts (did i say "peanuts"? this word's become so famous) with walnuts and expect a $130+ creative to sound like a $300+ iRiver. personally i use to own a $300+ iRiver but too bad the power on button failed me after 18 months rendering the whole unit unusable.....the sound is good. now i am getting a cheaper creative with a fall short on the signal to noise ratio .... poorer sound quality less crisp as compared to my iRiver but if i were to get a Creative for $300 i am sure it will sound just like my iRiver used to be.
i am not worried about battery life...i am worried about the battery type and battery size....build in or proprietor rechargeable batt are out of teh question...we dun know when itll break and if it do...where to get the replacement at a reasonable price? if the player operrates on AA AAA i can get plenty of rechargeable battery and i can control batt life when i choose between a 850mAH or a 2300mAH.
as for apple i dun giv a dam n and dun u show off that apple to any one...got money can buy oredi and i would rather u show off yr PC specs and not another OEM Apple G-string computer to me

now Apple is intel and Intel is Apple ... no more Apple G-string processor ya hear
