    How much you got to spend? Do you want it to be a flash or a hard drive based player?

    If I were you I'd start looking here!

    If you wanna impress her, get her a 10/20gb iPod, they will set you back about £200 tho. Something flash based, like 256mb would set you back about £70 and they hold about 2 albums worth. Those are the 2 initial choices.

    I can fit 2 albums on my 128mb mp3 players memory. Looking at getting a 512 SD card to upgrade it though.

    Anyway flash players aren't worth the money really when you can spend a little more and get a HDD based one with >10GB storage. That'll hold a tasty amount of music. 128 or 256MB is hardly worth the bother.

    All depends on what you want, I was happy with my 512mb solid state as batteries lasted forever and i could change albums (something i still do frequently on the ipod now its full) every few days as i've always got something new to listen to. If you only want something to go for a run with/go to the gym/spend half an hour on the bus every so often a smallish solid state is perfect as a hdd player is bigger heavier and more expensive than it needs to be for the job.

    play.com have got a nice selection of solid state players at decent prices, also a kiiro 128mb player is perfect if you can get your hands on one, twas my first mp3 player.

    www.aria.co.uk have a lot of decent flash-based ones.

    If you want a hdd based one definatly have a look at the rio karma, much better than the iriver and ipod
