I've gone from MD (Sony MZ-R900) to CD (Sony D-EJ01) and I've decided I need a HD-based MP3 player. My CDP is great and I love it with the Headroom Total Bithead and Ety ER-4S inside the Headroom AirBag, but the only problem is that I can't stand to lug around and deal with my huge 100-CD holder.
My needs (not in order of importance):
1. Under $300 (give or take a little)
2. True line out
3. Stores at the very least 20GB but preferably at least 40GB
4. Has at least 12 hours true battery life (more is of course better)
5. At the very least will fit within my current Airbag. I would like, however, something which would be easy to put in a portable case (possibly one of Headroom's) so that I could easily see what music I'm playing, menu options, etc
6. Gapless playback is a must
7. Very reliable (don't want to have to ship for repairs from Israel)
8. Easy to manage/use
I don't have much time nowadays to read up on every article and review so I hope you guys will bear with me and help me choose a player. The Nomad NJB3 looks interesting as do the Creative Zen Touch, Rio Karma, and some others, though I have not yet done enough research. Recommendations for bags/cases that will accomodate my Total BitHead will be gladly accepted as well.
Thanks in advance for your help!
