Which MP4 do you recommend?

Subject: Which MP4 do you recommend? Wed May 25, 2011 8:14 am

I'm thinking of getting an MP3 player (Preferably one which has MP4/Video playing/picture-showing capacity) and right now I'm thinking of getting a Sansa E250 or +Fuze, but I've never had an MP3 player before. Tight-ish budget, because I'm a selfish old geezer and don't give my money out too quickly.

Any recommendations? Most of the high-end MP3's seem to be Apple or another brand that costs some $230 +, which is a bit too much to spend right now on an MP3 player, seeing as there are so many at other prices.

Thanks!

Edit: Well, I was reading up a bit more about MP3/4 players (Augh! I'm getting sick of reading reviews...) and I found this one: Sony Walkman - It seems to be a good deal (50 Hour Battery, 8 GB Space, etc.). Does anyone know if this one's a good choice?

Most MP3 players are the same. But if I were you, I'd go with the Sansa, as I used to use one of those and it worked out great.

Aren't walkmans just portable tape players? Or are those just the old ones. I would go with an iPod, just saying. Not all of them are expensive. You can buy refurbished ones very cheap that are pretty much as good as new, and you don't have to buy a super expensive touch or anything (although I did for only 150 bucks) cheaper (<100 dollar) iPod nanos can play video and music, and some can even record video.

Actually, I just want something that's REALLY reliable. And preferably have picture/video function. The cameras on those things are pretty bad, in general. I think I'm going to go for an E-series Sony. No, it's not a tape player, Happy.

but the earlier models were. It's got a 50 Hour battery life, and a nice display.
