Hey all
The GF let it slip she could use an MP3 player. Can anyone point me in the direction of one that is pretty good but the main priority is size and practicality TBH.
She's not a gizmo girl so ideally I though one that could attach to her keys would be the most useful for her, she has enough stuff to carry around already. Memory size isn't all that important either.
Any pointers appreciated.
Cheers
Dan.

Aren't they about £100? Don't get me wrong I would get one but she's basically non-gizmo girl. At all. Not one bit. She'd be horrified to get one at that price the way she treats things. In fact she'd have a go at me for spending that much on one for her. Hm. Maybe a shuffle though, that may just be small enough if it can be attached to her key-fobby-thing-a-me-bob.

You can probably get a bit smaller and cheaper. Probably not with a screen though. How happy would said non-gadget girl be with not being able to pick the song that's playing?

Not sure TBH, I think she would probably just press play and leave it in reality. Compactness is probably the main thing. I know the shuffle can clip onto things but I was thinking of trying to find a small one that could attach to her keys, she loses things easily...

I had a great little Nano clone that cost less than a fiver. It had a screen, played video and even a few games. Mind-numbingly awful headphones though. Sounded fine with decent ones. Came in a lovely presentation box too.

Ooo another one to have a looksie at, thanks for that. Early doors looked like the shuffle was a safe bet, clip it to her bag and away she goes although I fell she may lose it so the others here a worth giving a check up on.... I'll have to have a read up on the headphones and the like of the others suggested, can't be irritating her delicate ears now.

Remember to make sure you're getting the right one when choosing symmetric/asymmetric
