The Nanos from the mid-2000s were pretty solid. I think I still have an 4GB one somewhere that worked the last time I looked.
Perfect for taking to the gym or hiking. An updated version with the same specs would probably be too cheap to produce now, with Flash so dramatically cheaper. Could you build one for $20?
- seanp2k2 11y agoCheck out the Sansa Clip. Up to 8GB, should be around $40 now, TINY (1.36 x 2.16 x .6"), good sound, small OLED screen, controls on the front which can be pressed through jeans, small enough to throw into you hood or under your collar or clip to the top of headphones. Also, mass storage mode so you can drag-and-drop files or set up a script to cp all your newest torrented music to it when you plug it in.
- jordigh 11y agoI have one of these. Well, two, because I wrecked one by dropping it in the toilet. They're currently discontinued, but you can still buy refurbished or used ones. The best part is that it you can install Rockbox. Rockbox is such a beautiful piece of software. I am fiercely protective about my Sansa Clip. I only paid around 35$ for it, but it's way more valuable to me than that now that they are getting difficult to find.
