    Cant decide, which one out of these 3 mp3 players..

    Hi
    Looking to get an mp3 player from this list below:

    iriver h10 6gb
    http://www.advancedmp3players.co.uk/...roducts_id=756

    monolith 2 1GB
    http://www.advancedmp3players.co.uk/...roducts_id=430

    or the diva IXEL 1GB
    http://www.advancedmp3players.co.uk/...roducts_id=924

    Basically want to record my lectures at university and use it as a driver free plug in hard disk for windowsxp to take my work home in from uni. Also want an FM tuner to listen to the radio when im travelling.

    I like the design of the monolith 2 alot but its only got usb 1.1 transfer rates. The diva IXEL has usb 2.0 and looks okay but cant find any reviews for it. The iriver looks okay and has nice features but its quite expensive and might have too many features for what i want to use it for.
    Help me make my mind up.

    I'd reccomend the H10 - great display, great user interface, bult in radio, great sound quality, supports MP3 and WMA, can sync in windos media player, good battery life..... need any more reasons?

    Edit: Sorry I just read what you want it for - the iriver would be great for what you need it for. It can record in various bit rates in MP3, which is great. It may well be, as you say, a bit expensive and over featured for what you want.
