Default MP3 Advise.

Hey guys (As well as girls. =] )
I'm was looking around on the Wal-mart Canadian website, and was contemplating on buying a cheap starter MP3 player untill I can buy a better one.

Out of these three which do you think is best?

Thanks.
^_^

I'm a little weary of the Diamond brand though... not my first choice...

Looks-wise, i would say the 3rd one... and feature-wise, either the 2nd or 3rd....

Overall i would go for the 3rd one...

To be quite blunt, I wouldn't buy any of those. What other major retailers do you have in your area?

Hmm, after I pay my father back for using his credit card. (haha) I might be a little tight for any of those, but I might be able to talk him into letting me borrow a few bucks.

I'm tired of bringing my diskmen everywhere. It takes up deskspace, and I need it in my classes. (Just started today.) Not to mention the headphones finally killed themselves on me.
D=

But yeah, I was thinking the third as well.

DCIScouts...
We have,
- Future Shop
- Walmart
- Superstore
- ... Giant Tiger...
- ... Some computer places that carry MP3's as well.

Thins is I'm really tight on money, hence the STARTER MP3 player untill I can afford a more decent one.

Hmm, the thrid one it is then. (For some reason I wrote fifth there first before third.)
I might try to get it this week, by calling my parents to pick it up for me, or this weekend while I'm with my papa.

Ah, here's some from the Future Shop website...

Sandisk Sansa for $50 (on sale for $30 off)
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...0070500&catid=

RCA for $80 ($30 off again) with FM tuner
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...0061330&catid=

Samsung for $100 (again, $30 off)
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...0074084&catid=

I'd go with the Samsung for quality, although the RCA is cheaper, still pretty good quality and has an FM radio to boot!

I would suppose so, got it directly from their website (obviously ), and they only seem to have Canadian stores...
