I want to get a mp3 player for my older brother for christmas but I cant seem to find the one I need. I want one that has a screen which you select songs, create playlists, ect. I need one that is atleast 1GB.

A: I don't know about cheap but it sounds like an the regular ipod is what you're looking for. I've also read a lot about an mp3 player called Creative Zen, which I've ordered for my bf. It has a FM tuner, records directly off of CD players, there is a 1Gig option, has the screen so you can see what's playing, the sound quality is as good if not better that the ipods and it is much easier to use, no downloading other loads of crap like the ipods just drag and drop or record...

Just Curiuos!

I have a ipod shuffle and a sansa e270 and the shufflel works fine but I need more GBs and the e270 is broken sooooooooo yea.

A: The iPod Nano isn't exactly cheap, but it is worth what it is priced at. You can get a newly designed iPod Nano 8gb for $149US ($199AU). They have many more features than Shuffles. (http://www.apple.com/ipodnano)
If you are looking for something a tad cheaper, go with an iRiver E100. It looks somewhat nice and has almost as many features as a Nano. The 4GB model is priced at US$99.99. (Site: http://www.iriver.com Amazon:...

If you’re looking for a table clock-type MP3 player, be sure to check out the Snow Angel from Seigyo. This compact player comes with a small display screen, a built-in speaker, a microSD card slot and a control panel over at the top. Sadly, there’s no word on pricing and release date yet.
