I own a 2G Ipod 10 gigger but if I were in your position I'd get a new mini Ipod. Smaller = way better in a portable MP3 player. Hard drive size is great for a computer but a far second (to size) in portable MP3 players.
be sure to do your research (I did quite a bit). Borrow a friends and play around with it. The karma is my personal choice, iPod seems to be quite a few others choice. good luck!
Actually I did play with the karma in person at my electronics store and it was amazing to mee, i was just confused as to buy into the hype of iPods (see those damn commercials way too much and those billboards around the city annoy me)
Size isn't a big difference, so long as i can fit it in acoat pocket, that's what im aiming for
eh, i think FLAC support is on deaf ears. chances are: 1. the decoder isnt that good and 2. headphones aren't that good. why need it?
if you have transparency on a 192 kbps mp3 or similar ogg, what's the point in use flac on a portable?
I've spent a fair bit of time reading up on some of these MP3 players, and i'd have to say i think the Zen Xtra is probably the best of the bunch. If you're just looking to play music, the creative has the best sound quality out of all of them. Now, that is only if you get yourself a good set of headphones. Every single review you look for will say that the Zen has amazing sound quality, and can't be beat. When it comes to features, and ease of use, the Ipod usually wins over the competition. Plus, it's the nicest looking one out there. If you're going for overall sound quality, which i think should be something on the top of your list, go for the Zen.
When it comes down to it, do your research on them. Read up every single review you can of the product you're interested in, and then make your purchase. By now you've probably already made your choice in what you bought, but to anyone else who thinks of buying a HD MP3 player, do some research first, or you could be like a few of the guys here and bought every single one and wasted money.

If iTunes is your desktop player of choice, your decision should be simple given the extreme level of integration between iTunes and the iPod.

ipod mini for $229 student discount from apple direct. or 3rd gen is preemo, always tons for sale on the web used www.ipodlounge.com
229 bucks for a 4GB player? Seriously, thats like throwing money away. I can get a 30 gig Zen Xtra for like 350 Canadian. Sure the ipod mini is awesome, but still, rip off for the size of it.
I'm really considering the Karma right now. It seems small enough to use at the gym, but has a lot of storage space.
I really like the Nitrus too, but it's pretty pricey for what you get - the size is perfect though. Any last minute tips?
I think i might try it out from Circuit City.... if i don't like it, then i'll just return it.
