I need to decide which one I should buy!

I'm sorry I can't recommend either of the two, as I've never used either one.

I CAN, however, recommend the Rio Karma! 20Gb, great battery life, etc... very solid little mp3 player!

Apparently they're nowhere to be found in either Norway nor Australia, so I'm f.ked when it comes to Rio's products.

it has a good battery life, that's pretty much all the reviews that i've read about it have said in the good column. (The sony one)


iPod

ohh, you should Defenitely get the Zen!! I have the Nx and its just great, a bit big someone say, but it plays mp3's, it got EAX too

24hours of battery is quite alot, Ipod got only 8... And Touch is Much cheaper. The size of the touch compared to the other zens is smaller, which is nice...

I have a ipod and it sucks for battery life.

The Iriver H320 . This little beauty outdoes them all although they are more expensive and hard to get hold of in certain places.

Personally i've got a nomad zen xtra 60gb and its great!

In the beginning I bought the iPod and the battery life was shite. It said 8 hours but it only lasted 4. The iPod looks better than the iRiver and it's less complicated but you only can upload music to it by using iTunes where as the iRiver is plug n play. You just click on the drive and you can add anything you want, not just music. The iRiver has a radio and a record function where as iPod doesn't. The
Creative mp3 player I saw at the store was bulky but it had more space and it was cheaper. I'm not sure if it was the Zen Touch though....

But you are missing the point, the reason why I only mentioned those two players are because of their price range!!!

The IRiver is $680USD, and that's just too much for a player.

The Zen Touch and Ipods are ~$340USD, which is half the price!
(Rio Karma as well)


So meant the thread to be about these two/three players, in that range, not all other sorts of players!



However, I've read *alot* of reviews now, and it seems
that everyone thinks that the Ipod has got shitty battery-life.
That's kinda the point of having it, to use it!
So no Ipod for me. I think I'll go for the Zen Touch, unless I can find a Rio Karma.

peace out

Hey, on www.iriveramerica.com the H320 is only $330 US, where did you hear it was 680?, or am I missin something.

ipods don't have the best bettery life but ohter than that it is pretty amazing I have had one for a couple fo years now and love it.


Posted by Halcyon+On+On on Oct-03-2004 01:46:

I actually got my Rio Karma off of Amazon.com for only $240 - apparently they had an overstock at the time or something and they gave me a speshul price

Bu tthis isn't just me bragging... it's an extremely solid little player with lots of nice features and I *think* Amazon sells it for $279. I'd recommend it. ^.^

iriver is class, but i do understand the difference in price between scandinavia and the US. my old Swedish roomie was thinking about having me ship him and iriver from US ebay to save money...i think he picked something else up tho-

The iPod is better than everything, if you don't consider cost a factor.
