I'd also like to expand the thread to include SD memory card mp3 players that use AA or AAA batteries.
Nice...I suppose players that make use of AAs or AAAs *and* [micro]SD cards would be the true everlasting players.

Heck, if I found one of these that sounded good, I don't think I'd be debating this choice of player so much...I'd buy an 8gb card for $80, up to $30 for one of these...and BAM, stop worrying about it. BUT...

most of them prolly do sound like junk I'm sure, and this one in particular gets terrible battery life (they shoulda used AAs). If anybody knows of a goldmine player like this that sounds pretty good and has a halfway decent battery life, puh-leeze let me know!!
Iriver T50 has been introduced and is available now, but it comes only as 1GB. T60 will be available in a month or so, and comes with up to 4GB of storage.
T50 is AA and around 50hrs of specified playback time, whilst T60 is AAA and around 18hrs of specified playback time. They are UMS. I'm planning on getting the black T60 (which is also, according to iriver, supposed to have a better audio chip than T50).
