So the other day my wife accidentally washed and dried my music player :closedmou. Now I am in the market for a new one. My old one, which I liked very much, was a 4GB Sony Walkman. I'm tempted to just go buy another one, but thought I would do some looking to see what's out there first. Thought maybe I could find a better deal and get some more storage :dunno:. Any leads on some good deals??

Great timing. All of the Ipod/Nano/Shuffle products announced today look like winners, depending on what you are looking for. I am think about picking up the new Nano, so I don't have to "lug" my old school 3rd Gen Ipod to the gym.

Get another walkman!
My last phone was the Sony Ericsson Walkman w580i, with the walman player built in. I LOVED it!! The proprietary jack on the phone was getting wobbly, and the other Walkman phone that ATT had was crap, so went to the Pixi. Anyway... LOVED the player on the phone!

go to a best buy and try the new touch out. they probably don't have a wifi connection (at least ours doesn't), so you won't get the full experience. but it really does do almost everything a computer will. pictures, email, games, music, and wifi - what else do you need? my 1st gen. has been going strong for over 2 years now, and i'm on it daily!

The only drawback is the included ear buds suck, imho.

I'd throw my vote in for the iPod as well but since you don't like them check out the Zune. I've got a buddy who is the same way about the iPod and iTunes - he just doesn't like them - he got a Zune and loves it.

+1 this is my father. He got a Zune and is absolutely in love with it. I've fooled around with it a few times and compared to the software that the iPod uses I much prefer the Zune.

I am a dinosaur and the wife finally convinced me to try a shuffle while running. Awesome. I can't believe I waited so long.

Do you shop ebay Dan? You'll find anything your looking for. I purchased two shuffles a month ago work great! Come on, Dan take a chance.

I have had a Creative Zen 30 GB for about 4-5 years and it's still going strong. Never had a problem with Creative. I'm also anti-Apple.
