I'm trying to find a small MP3 player for my wife. For the most part
she wants to listen to spoken word (training materials, etc), with some
music. Since the player needs to be small (preferably carried around the
neck), I'm assuming that I want Compact Flash.
Must have list: 1) Small size 2) Good quality sound 3) Good battery
life (prefer AA to AAA 4) Supports MP3 and WMA 5) Decent user
interface-that doesn't require a degree in CompSci to use.
Important (but not essential features): 6) Supports Voice recording > 1
hr in length 7) FM receiver
Nice to have 8) FM transmitter for
playback in the car
It needs at least 512M, perhaps even 1G. A few minutes of reading
CNet's reviews suggest the IRiver's
700/800 series would seem to fit the bill.
What other Flash players can you recommend? Which review sites do a good
job (other than Consumersearch)?
