Im a contractor by trade and I occasionally have downtime so Im looking for something that can play video decently. Decent storage.
And it must have an FM tuner. Im a sports radio junkie and I need to get more of it when Im not in my vehicle.
But im looking for the sub $150 range, craigslist etc.

Im considering a 5th gen ipod nano. i have a 4th gen ipod classic and an archos 504

Anyone have any suggestions.

Cowon S9 has a nice screen and good audio quality as well.

Sorry for the delay, out of town.

Im looking for atleast 16GB but the more the better. I hate having to load and remove stuff, I just like to load it once and forget.

I guess what it comes down to is if there is a better portable media player that has FM and can do video then a zune?

Check out the Creative Zen 32gig. $140 on Amazon. A Cowon S9 would be better, but it's above your pricepoint.

My 5th gen iPod Nano has horrible quality with the FM. If you move even the slightest, you hear crackling over the already staticy radio.

Sony S545, Cowon D2+, Sansa Fuze, Philips Go gear Opuse and Samsung P3.
