a DAP for sport with S4

[Shak]

Hi,
I am currently waiting to get the Klipsch S4, and would like to buy a suitable DAP,
It will be used for running, so it should be rugged, compact and lightweight.
I do not need any other features like video etc.
I do prefer 16GB or at least 8GB capacity,
My price range is around 100$,

I thought the best idea was to buy the iAudio 7,
Do you think it is a good idea ?
Will it pair well with the S4 ?
Any suggestions ?
Thanks
Shak

get the clip+, you can always get the 8gb clip + an expansion 8 microSD for much less than the iaudio 7 and is perfect for running/exercise/etc

I can get the clip+ 8Gb for 100$ and an 8GB MicroSD card for about 25$,
While the iAudio 7 16Gb is about 155$.
An advantage of ~30$ for the clip+.

There is a difference in playing time (15Hr for the clip+ vs. 60 Hr for Iaudio 7),
but, most important, I understood there is a difference in SQ between them, isn't it significant ?

Clip+ 8GB is $100 over there? Wow, what a rip. Never heard the iAudio7, but the Clip+ should be more than adequate for running. I had it and it paired nicely with the S4s.

yea here you can get the clip for $60 and the microsd for $20. that's quite a ripoff over there. maybe you can get someone to buy it for you in the states and just ship it over?
