Just got D2 myself...I'll NEVER buy an ipod again. This thing is a little gem!.

that is not exaclty portable or even easily movable.

edit: many many d2 threads out, not hard to find opinions. i sold mine once i bought and listened to the ipod touch as i was convinced it would be so superior to it that it would be harmless to just plug into the little ipod. that first plug in delievered to me, better bass, gapless and less harshness. i sold my d2 about 3 or 4 months later after having abandoned it in an ipod sock for too long

d2 isn't bad IMO, but stay with iaudio 7 if you don't need the video function though. I thought D2 sounded worse than X5 and i7

EDIT: oh, I forgot to mention small size and 60 hours of battery life for i7

the nano 3g is also a surprise for me. meizu m6 is a classic (mine just died though [eternal white screen of death it was])

for iems (as hiss matters with many other than the legendary ety), d2, nano 3g, zune are good as hiss is very low, but so too is bass rolled off to a large extent.

nano 3g at least boasts a great stereo image

For me it will always be the ipod. Have yet to find another player that will allow me to control it through my home stereo with the recivers remote and also have the ipods menu on my television screen. It also allows me to control it through my car stereos head unit. I can scrol through the songs using the head units remote while the ipod is safely tucked away out of sight in my glove box. Then there is the ability to connect it to my portable amp using an LOD. Have yet to find another player that does all of this.

My D2 has been brilliant so far.

Might get an S9 though....

I guess I'm gonna be the oddball here and say the Sansa 8gig Fuze. Why, because the only other one I own is the E260. The Fuze has it all over the 260.

I have to say Sansa clip. Great sound quality and OGG support and it is tiny and dirt cheap compared to most mp3 players. I only payed 50 for the 4gb one. I still have an X5L but that had one flaw I really didn't like, the lineout was on a seperate attachment and that attachment was flimsy I bent two of them and had to buy it again twice. To top it off the lineout rolled off bass and it wasn't popular enough to have good cheap lod solutions like the ipod, any decent lod was expensive. Soundwise though, it is still the best mp3 player I've heard.

Zune80...

My D2 because of expandability,god like battery, and amazing file support. That and its the only player that I have actually have survive longer than a year (im rough with my gear sorry)

Nooooooooooooooooooo wait for the D3 the S9 doesnt have expandable memory like the D2 and it only playes vids at 272x480

But it does look amazing

/me love the 1G iPod nano. Highly portable, durable, and with decent sound quality.

Hey - I just picked up the RAmos. Sounds amazing!! Horrible menu system...actually it really does not have one - weird....

Any thoughts on the new Nano??
