Flash MP3 Player (variable sizes)

I'm not sure how good they are on organization.. But I do know they're pretty easy to use.. a gig flash player is pretty cheap. USB 2.0 transfers songs pretty quick.

Personally I use a "Creative Zen Micro" 5GB Drive.
Holds a hell of a lot of songs. WMA or MP3. Great organization. Only thing keeping it from being in the ranks of the IPOD is the hard drive size. You can probably get one for 200 USD on ebay. Easy menu's and controls.. Comparable to the IPODs controls. I already filled mine up with all my
albums :(
It's smaller than the IPOD except for the thickness.. With a belt clip it'd be good for working out.

Try www.froogle.com or pricewatch maybe for comparisons..

I hear IPODs break pretty easily also.. My brother was actually fixing one for a coworker the other day, so i'm starting to believe thats true.

They are same price, and if you by an ipod mini now, they dont include USB or Wall Charger...They Lowered the price of the Ipod to match Creative Zen Micro by taking out essential extras..RIPOFF
