Hello everyone,
We are going to buy a mp3-player as a gift to a person retiering at work and I thought I should see if anyone here have any recommendations for a good one since I must admit neither me or any of the co-workers know much about it. Reguirements that I can think of are the following:
* Should have built in radio
* Price should be not above arround $200 (preferably a bit lower)
* No disc drive, that is some sort of memory card (can be built in, no problem), preferably at least 512 mb
* Should have easy to read display (it is for an older person so it can possibly become an issue)
* Normal USB connection (no idea if other solutions exists, but basically a Drag and drop or similar easy copy function for files from the computer)
Well, that is about it, of course, good sound quality is good as well :)
Anyone have any recomendations? Or experience? Something to avoid? Don't care much about brand and so on as long as it is good and works easy. Thanks in advance for any help.
