I have an ipod mini, which I love for teaching dance classes. Music right at your fingertips, I plug it into my stereo with an RCA cord, and they are still available refurbished on the Apple website, but my favorite mp3 is the Ipod Shuffle. The new one that clips on your clothes. No screen, but I also listen to audiobooks, so I listen when I paint, clean house, mow grass (with noise canceling headphones). You just remove a book when you are done, and I have my favorite music on it, so when I listen to music, I just get it randomly. Perfect for on the go. It clips right on the hem of my shirt and I don't have to worry about a screen getting scratched. Makes housework much easier since I'm no Martha Stewart! These also work with a cassette adapter or FM tuner in your car.
If you want to read other's reviews and find the perfect mp3 for you, you can go to Amazon.com and read other consumer's reviews or to cnet.com, and find out all you need to know!
