Considering buying an mp3 player, what should i get?

[ifoundthetao]

I really haven't been in the portable mp3 game for a long time. I've been looking at broken Ipods lately though, I was thinking of buying a broken one to bring back to life. But they are still kind of expensive. So, I was wondering what you guys think are better alternatlives to Ipods. I really don't want to spend a lot of money, and I did find this. So if anyone has used that (if you didn't click the link, its an Entempo Spirit MP3 player) please let me know. I did some research on it and there wasn't great feedback about it, so I am kind of hesitant about getting it. I checked Ebay out, but I'm not sure. And I know that apple offers discounts to students who want to buy Ipods.
So please, tell me what you guys use.

samsung or iriver. PSP is best, but not a dedicated mp3 player.

Right, FM tuner? Voice recording? What format is your songs in?, battery life an issue? HDD or Flash player?

Price range should be under $200, the larger size the better, and if it is smaller, I would like to be able to upgrade it, or plug in different flash drives. The features aren't too important, just a shuffle mode, decent interface, lcd screen. I dont need any FM tuners, voice recording would be a plus, but not a necessity. Flash would be preferred, since I would get too scared of dropping it and destroying the HDD (if that isn't a problem then let me know). And probably more fuscia or hot pink than anything else.

Flash players are usually limited to under 1 gig or lower. HDD drives are pretty resilient although you dont wanna take them jogging. For under 200 u can get a dell jukebox i think. 20 gigs, monotone(is that the right word?) color.

depends how much music you have. if you have 4gb or less, the mini would work fine.
