Hello
I want to buy a HDD based mp3 player, my budget is around $170-210.
I have short lested the following players and i want to know how they are :
[*]Creative Zen Sleek Photo 20gb for $180-190[/li]
or
[*]Creative Zen Microphoto 8gb[/li]
Both have color screen, fm, voice recording, eq....etc

[*]Toshiba Gigabeat F40 40gb[/li]
It has color screen but no fm or voice recording

[*]Iriver PMP-120 20gb portable media player[/li]
It has video playback, fm, windows media player based, but it is big as it has dimensions of 5.6" * 3.9" * 1.2", difficult to carry in a jeans pocket.


Which one of these would you people suggest.
Any other recommendations are welcome.....

toshiba gigabeat "s" is your best bet however $90 over your budget and not widely available yet. I love my zen micro, not the photo one, but if the photo is the same as the regular in the sound quality department, you'd love it too.

Zen Microphoto looks to be the best of those choices. If you would like more space, though, the Zen Sleek Photo isn't TOO bad a choice. I'm not a big fan of the sleek myself, though, and I'm regretting the purchase. Basically, if 8gb is enough for you, get the Microphoto.
