Best MP3 player for exercise ?

[AFB]

FM radio would also be nice. I am guessing flash would be better than hard drive based ?

W/ FM, I think you're limited to an iRiver or a Rio. Just depends on how much you want to pay

I have a Rio Sport S30S 64mb and it works great. It has FM Radio and I bought a 256 card for it too. Dropped it plenty of times running and it keeping on going.

FM is optional

IRiver or Mpio

I have an MPIO that works very well for lifting, biking, and running.

ipod mini, hands down if you want capacity over what flash based mp3 players give you. if you're ok w/ reduced capacity, i'd pick up one of the rios.

Iriver.

Jens of Swedens also makes a good little thing like iriver.

I use my iPod and I have no probs running and everything with it... just a tad heavy to stay in place

 

[isekii]

i would think a Muvo with a 512mb CF card.

tad heavy? Wouldn't that make it BETTER for exercise?

Hrmm for a workout I wouldn't think that you would need more than 128 megs of storage. Definately not more than 256.

I use a Rio Cali 256. It comes with an armband/waist clip and is expandable via SD cards. It has an FM radio and pretty good software for uploading.

Rio Nitrus

RIO S35 - Check compgeeks and Walmart. Usually around $60. 64MB storage in house. Expandable to 512MB+...

I'm using a Rio S30s with a 256 mb SD card (on top of 64 mb onboard): it's relatively small, comes with an armband, uses standard AAA batteries, has an FM tuner and an SD slot. I really like mine

 

[BaboonGuy]

Muvo2 or iRiver. Either is good.

 

[Idex]

Nomad

 

[Imdmn04]

iRiver or iPods.
Anything else that doesn't start with an i sucks.

MuVo 2 X-Trainer 512Mb. Awesome MP3 player!

iRiver - my iFP-190T is great for working out.
