Need recommendation on portable MP3 Player with FM Tuner (First Post Ever And It's A Vanity)
self

Posted on 01/25/2005 4:26:54 AM PST by PigRigger

Anyone have any suggestions regarding a reasonably priced (less than $100.00) MP3 Player with a built-in FM Tuner?

It's for my daughters birthday, so it's time for dear old dad to raise to the occasion....

Unfortunately I can't blame this on Bush if I don't deliver the goods....

BTW, I did a search first and spell check before posting....


TOPICS: Music/Entertainment
KEYWORDS: mp3
Advice and suggestions welcome....

felt a recommendation might be helpful before purchasing.

was looking at a RIO on overstock. Unfortunately, not sure of the quality

Mine is a SanDisk 256 MB. I've been very happy with it. I paid around $70 at J&R Music World (JR.com).

Sorry can't help you.

I just want to congratulate you for putting this in the proper category.

Sooooo many vanities wind up in Breaking News, I get the urge to shoot someone (KIDDING).

I've got a 128meg Iriver with fm tuner. I've had it a couple of years, its great. Iriver makes real good stuff, but in general theirs run just a little higher priced than others.

Check out this one at Amazon, mine looks just like it.

256 megs, and $72.88 after rebate.

You know (sorry for the Hillaryism), if was only an error in posting it wouldn't be so bad (we are human). But prior to the election it reached epidemic proportions. Every time someone got a stoo-pid idea, they'd post a Vanity about their 'brainstorm' under Breaking News.

That was extreeeeemely irritating, and a waste of time for all. The Mods must have been going crazy. They were closing and/or moving those threads to Chat ten times a day.

No. It comes with the cable, as well as an armband and a clear, plastic case.

Thanks - I was looking at iRiver, couldn't find one in my price range with the capabilities I was looking for - until now.

Ordered it an hour ago..............
