"Which USB pendrive/Mp3 player?"

Hi all.

I'm getting one of these off my folks for Chrimbo. Which one is the best for the price/features/size? I'm thinking of getting the Creative Labs Nomad Nx 128, because it looks the nuts, but is a bit too expensive:

Anyone know any other USB drives/Mp3 players that are up to par?

Are you mad? Its a white box. How does that look nice? Still, I've always hated how Apple stuff looks. I didn't really like how PC's looked until the more stylish cases came out (I think an Alienware in Space Black with Terra Green video cooling is the best looking PC case I've seen).


Still, I spose its a matter of taste.

The Muvo NX is the best out there if you're not after a jukebox drive. You can also get those Muvo2 drives, about 1.5Gb or something.

If it is a jukebox you want, get a Zen rather than the iPod. They do exactly the same (including using firewire) and are so much cheaper.

iPod just looks nice.

I've got one of the original Muvo mp3 players, without the fancy screen. Cost me about ninety quid when I bought it. The best things about it are (a) no more floppy disks, and (b) the ability to buy a headphone-jack-to-stereo lead and go round to your mates' houses and annoy them with your fantastic taste in music. I don't know what the headphones are like because I threw them away but the sound quality is very good.

You can use the iPod as a FireWire drive, too. But I must admit the Sony looks nice ...

Cost a stupid amount of money, they do (although they are good). But, the Sony is better and almost half the price!

How about an iPod? I know it's not a pendrive but I had to say it just to annoy phi11ip ...

I would advise the Sony NW-MS70 Network Walkman but the cheepest I've seen that is around £200. Erm... I think if you can strech to the Creative (posibly spend some of you chrispo money on it in addtion?) I would, as from experiance you regret it if you don't get the best you can afford (I bought a MD Walkman for £150 and after about half a yeah I sold it to me bro for £50 so I could get a £250 one because it had a remote, rechagable battery, it was a net MD, etc and my old one had none of that).

No try this

There's no eaphones, but fer christ's sake, an 128MB SM card with it!!! Come on!!!

Word up dogg, I thought the oracom one was wicked when we had it to play with in the office. Well worth a look :)

Get a ZEN.

That will keep them sorted for years.

128meg is pathetic.
