Have you got an iPod shuffle? Good, I'd like to make you a few questions...

- How can you find a specific file in your iPod? Is it even possible?
- Is it fragile?
I've never seen and iPod shuffle in my life, but Sony's given me so much headache I think it's time to make a switch. I'm looking for an mp3 player that has built-in batteries, can play files sequentially (I know that, despite the name, the iPod shuffle can do it), allows me to browse directories easily and, of course, is as cheap as possible... I imagine an iPod shuffle could be the player I'm looking for.
Any ideas?
ps.: I don't really have many models to choose from. I wanted an RCA Lyra but they're not available where I live :( |

You MUST get one of those. It would be so fitting. |

I know, that's why I want one, but they're not sold in Brazil. I could import a player from the US, but if it breaks down the hassle to mail it back is not worth it :sadgreen: |

Waaaah waaaaah waaaaaah, stop being a girl. mp3 players don't break every other week. Except iPods, they do that. :p
The awesomeness of a player named after you stands above lame considerations about repair, price, features or like that. DO IT! |

Well, the Philips GoGear thingy I use pretty much works exactly like you described in the OP. It's never ran out of battery for me yet mid-listen, it's small yet the display is clear and it's easy to browse with. It's only 4GB but that's never been a problem for me as I only use it when I go jogging or gym. Fairly cheap too IIRC. And the main upside is it's not an Apple product :p |

Sony mp3 Walkmans do, hence why I don't want them any more.
And, according to the reviews I read on Amazon, Lyras aren't exactly rock-solid either :p

I'll look into it, thanks.
By the way, how light are they? Isn't it awkward to jog with an mp4 player? |

It's very light and tiny. Then again it is a couple of years old, I don't know how the newer models are. |

I'm looking for something smaller. It's not like I'm going to watch videos or anything, but I'm going to keep your recommendation in mind :) |

I'm not sure we're talking about the same product - mine's just a tiny MP3 player.

Weird... they only sell mp4 players here, and I assumed you had one of these:
Heh... |
