remember the nano is flash-based. although i have to agree that apple is crappy for cheaping out on the AC adapter, but a 4gig flash-based player for $249 is hard to beat.

if picking from those 3... i guess iriver.

What about the Zen MicroPhoto? Just noticed this on Creative's site, but I couldnt' find a price for it.

Iaudio X5 FTW

cowon iaudio x5L has the best sound quality overall tho.!


but i like those 3? i would get iriver.

they upgrade firmware like every couple month.

i've know iriver since 2002.(first slimx!)

their c/s is great!

Someone answer this drag and drop question for me please.

You can drag songs with the Zen. It also supports Windows Media player sync (which is even better). Best part is it charges through the USB cable, so you don't need two cables for charging and transfer.

Sound is awesome too!

IRiver

definitely consider the phillips hd6330 and the Coson iAudio x5. Both of them are better looking and more feature laden than the others you'v elisted.

oh btw, the h10 is usb mass storage compliant with a firmware update.

Use a Zen Micro 5GB, bought it used for $140 CDN (about $120 USD), wife has the iPod 4GB & i'll take my Micro over that thing any day.

Soooooooo, ZEN!

I bought a zen about a month back and I could not possible be happier with it. Has FM tuner with recording so I can record music on radio, has voice record, fast charging, Fvcking awesome sound quality and it is 100% drag and drop compatible.
