My old NAPA one got nicked. Shame really, I'd jus**t managed to s**tretch my pockets so that it fitted!
Anyway.
I considered an IPOD but I don't want to pay £300 for one. (Cheaper one doesn't give you the headphones and charger!) probably a no-no.
Then there's the Creative Jukebox Zen which I can get for £265 and it will las**t me long time. Sounds good too. Still, rather pricey but I won't need to replace it for ages.
Then we got the cheaper MP3-CD players. The one by Mercury seems to be sh*t and and Goodmans on seems to be cheap and nas**ty. Don't really want to was**te £40-£50 on one of these if they're crap.
I don't want a normal MP3 player as it doesn't hold enough songs for my liking and the memory cards are expensive.
What do I get?
Hmmmmm.
*thinks*

I don't want to pay £90 for more memory cards though. (decent sized ones)
I need a big vareity on each card, not just a few songs.
That's why I loved my MP3-CD player. 150 odd songs per CD.
But the Zen...
Looking bright for the Zen.

The NAPA PA11 they sell here is decent enough. I've only used my friends, and I'm awaiting mine, but it has 64mb onboard and a 128mb Smartmedia card is only around £20
I have a Smartmedia card already, and I've been waiting almost 2 weeks now for my MP3 player.
GRRRRR SR.

I want one too, but i aint paying such a high price for one...
Get the Beatman they sell here. Tiny, and you can get 100mb memory cards to carry around with you. Runs through batteries at an alarmingly SLOW rate. Only gone through a few of the ickle AAA batteries and I've been using it since Feb or March I think.
It's available here at SR.

I might get one of these
Amazing for the price really.

Cheapest is £106 and it's used.
So I get some earwaxed headphones!
No thanks!
Looking at the Zen.

5GB iPods go for <£100 on eBay apparently.
What about a new Napa then?
