Hey guys, I need to buy some sort of mp3 player and saw these two. Which should I get of these two or any others you know at a decent price:

COMPAQ IPAQ Personal Audio MP3 Player with 64 mb of Memory.
Takes up to 2 hours of yoru favorite songs with you everywhere you go. Organize and play your music with the easy-to-use software. Small and lightweight, it's about the size of a pager and fits comfortably in your pocket. USB connectivity
cost 129.99


RCA Portable MP3/CD PLayer
Offers upto 200 seconds of shock protection for MP3 files and 40 seconds for standard CD's. Includes MusicMatch software CD-ROM, multiline text and 8-level subfolder management

cost 129.99


Now, this will mainly be used for travel so I was thinking the cd plyaer. But i will occasionally use it when i go out on walks and stuff and I didn't know if the cd-player would be that much of a hassel. Any suggestions or other ones to look at?

May I ask why you're getting a MP3 player now? I mean, with a CD/MP3 Player only costs like $100, and no computer is a computer without a CD-RW.

Well, thats why I was looking at the cd-player. I am probably going to get the cd/mp3 player but i just dont know how inconvinent it would be to take it around on walks and such. Also, I've never looked into this so I dont know if this cd/mp3 player combo is any good
