Best Portable Music Player

Thanks to everyone who posted observations & recommendations. In my search for information I came across another on line forum, www.anythingbutipod.com, which has a wealth of information on the subject. Last night I ordered an 8GB Sansa Clip+.

The Sansa Clip and Fuze support FLAC.

The worst thing about them is that they play about 0.5% fast unless you load the third party firmware for them - Rockbox.

Very interesting (and timely) information. Thanks, Arny. I thought about rockboxing my Clip+ once it arrives but first thought I'd give it a go in its stock implementation. Since I plan on using it primarily at the gym, maybe 0.5% faster will subconsciously get me going and lifting more weight.:)
