Suggest a mp3 player please under 3k

[SoulFire]

well i have an uncle who is handicapped n survives only on pension

he wants a good mp3/mp4 player for his daughter under a budget of 3k , size a couple of gb is ok

she wants to watch videos and listen to mp3 with the same.She would take care of it and hopes it survives for at least a while , i was looking at ebay and there are a bunch of ipod nano 4th gen , ipod classic and ipod tough clones available just under 3k

are those reliable ? Also would it be better to go the branded way , if yes what are the options ?

hoping to get some good replies as this is for a cause......thanks:hap2:

please avoid cheap Chinese ones.

for 3k look for something from transcend ...

here you go. should be cheaper if ebay coupons are still working.

+1 for Creative Zen.

Good video and Audio experience. Transcend is good but not for Video.. They suck with their cheap mtv format. I'd prefer Zen over Sansa coz of a better screen and better video playback ability.

I was also on the lookout for something like this. Is there something around 16gb mp3 players?

 

[thenvk]

I don't think you will get the 16gb players in 3k range.

 

[madmaniac]

I didnt mean that. I was just wondering if there are 16gb ones availabe in the market. if so what company.

 

[thenvk]

Yes,I am not sure in INDIA,but you can get almost all brands with 16gb capacity in US. In fact 32 gb is also available.

 

[madmaniac]

Thx for the info. Will check Us sites.

Creative Zen Stone.
There's one for sale in the market section, it could be your best bet

^ He clearly mentioned it should be a video player. Creative Zen from KMD FTW
