Hello,
What I really want is a 20GB iPod or a 4GB Mini, but not everyone can afford expensive MP3 players like that. I have been looking at the iPod Shuffle, and the Sandisk 1GB. The Sandisk 1GB is a better value, but the iPod Shuffle would probably be higher quality, plus it is integrated into iTunes (which is good for me, a mac user). Here are the specs on both MP3 Players:
1GB iPod Shuffle - About $149.00
- Power Source: Rechargable Lithium Ion Battery
- General Features: Anti-Shock Memory, CD Ripping/Encoding, Internet Support, Upgradable Firmware
- Average Playback Time: 12 hours
- Format Supported: AAC, MP3, WAV
- Playback Featuers: Shuffle Play Mode
- Storage Media Supported: Internal Flash Drive
- System Compatibility: Macintosh, PC
- System Connectivity: USB
- 1 Year Limited Warranty
Sandisk 1GB Silver MP3 Player - About $123.00
- Power Source: (1) AAA Battery
- General Features: Backlit LCD Display, Built-In Microphone
- Addictional Features: FM Tuner, Voice Recorder
- Average Playback Time: 15 hours
- Batteries Included: Yes
- Format Suported: MP3, WMA, WMA DRM
- Included Components: Belt Clip, Carrying Case, Headphones, Software, USB Cable, User Manual
- Number of Station Presets: 20
- Playback Features: Track Programming
- Storage Media Supported: Internal Flash Drive
- System Compatibility: Macintosh, PC
- System Connectivity: USB
- 1 Year Limited Warranty
Now, I personally would want the Sandisk 1GB because it has a screen, a radio tuner, mic, etc. and all for less than the 1GB iPod Shuffle, but the Shuffle might be higher quality.. What do you guys think? Please say all of your thoughts on both of these players. Thanks!
