What the best 40GB MP3 Player?

[BIGBADYAS]

hi, i am wanting to purchase a 40gb mp3 player for my extremely long bus rides every morning and evening. i'm struggling to decide which one to get as there are soo many around. i am thinking either iriver h340 or something close to that. can anybody recommend anything. thanks!

How long is this bus journey?  40 gig will hold 10,000 tracks! I manage just fine with a 20 gig Ministry Of Sound mp3 jukebox, currently going for �70 on eBay.

 

Have to admit though they've shrunk even more in size and wouldn't mind a lighter, thinner sleeker model for Chrimbo!

the problem with these huge players is you spend ages (attempting to) fill it up but when it goes wrong youve lost everything !!!!!!

I would definatley go for the iRiver, especially as the Rockbox Gods  http://www.rockbox.org/  are looking favourably on it. Once they do their thing it will be an awsom bit of kit.

Matk,

there is no problem with these "huge MP3 players" if they go wrong, as you will have all your music backed up on your desktop pc......wouldn't you?
