MP3 players

[chickenfeet]

As reported previously the lovely lemur bought me an RCA Lyra Sport MP3 player for my birthday. There was a snag. Despite being advertised as being Mac compatible the simple act of downloading files to it appeared to corrupt the system files rendering it useless. Two exemplars have now been returned and I'm in the hunt for something else. If money were no object (hollow laugh) I'd get one of the new Nanopods. It's the right (physical) size and is sure to work with Mac OS but it's about twice as expensive as I feel justified in paying.

What I need is a player for using when I'm running. It needs to be light, have an armband, work with Mac OSX and that's about it really. 256MB is fine as I don't intend it to be a primary storage unit for music. Anyone got any bright ideas?

you want the new IPOD nano. It's only a bit thicker than a credit card.

You are right, I want it but I can't really justify the cost for what I'll use it for.
