I currently use a nano (gift from my parents), but before that I used a Samsung Yepp and it worked just fine.

I got an arm strap for my Creative Vision M. It's huge but it works well :) Otherwise my cell phone works great.

I wonder how good the Creative Zen Stone is going to be...($39.99 for 1GB MP3/WMA player....reasonable?)

Sandisk all the way! FM, Voice Recorder, Expandable memory, Great battery life, cheap price!.

BTW....

I hate all the people with their stupid Ipod crappy players!

5.5G 30GB iPod, but I want to get a cheap, used, flash-based mp3 player for working out.

My gf just got one and the thing feels like a toy. You can get a refurb nano for about the same price and the build quality is MUCH better.

Eh? How so? Mine is as solid as can be. Apple's DAPs don't exactly have a reputation for build quality...

Is it the small one that looks like a colorful (and much smaller) version of an old school game boy? The plastic felt really cheap and it creaked a lot. I know there's no moving parts but, well, the 2nd gen nano feels like it's made out of a solid piece of aluminum.

Anyone use the ipod 80 gig video? I know its big but.. I just got it (thank you Thank You points), so I'm wondering how well it does during a run.

Yeah, that's the one. It feels REALLY cheap to me, like the cheaper of the sandisk flash players (their pricier ones do feel good in the hand though).

Did you buy it used? Run over it?
