SanDisk Sansa e250 costs around $100-$110. It is 2GB which means it hold around 500 songs. It shows photos and has video playback. It has a nice vibrant screen, and it also has a voice recorder. There is an FM tuner from which you can listen to the radio or even record from. It has a MicroSD slot so you can expand the memory at a given time. It has a nice sleek design and has the same dimensions as the iPod Nano except for the thickness which it is more thicker.

If your Ipod only allows you to play itunes but not mp3s then go for mp3s. Buy the mp3s that also plays itunes so you can play both. I have an Apple ibook laptop and I downloaded (bought) some songs but coudn't play in my mp3. The only way I could do it was by burning it into a cd then download the songs back into my laptop as mp3 and then upload it to my mp3 player, what a hassle. That's the only thing I don't like about Apple's mentality. They tried to make you buy their things only. So even though I have ibook from Apple, I won't buy ipod.

Well it depends if you are going to just listen to music then get the mp3 player but if you are going to watch videos and other stuff then go with the ipod.

i have my 2gb nano since christmas of last year and im totally in love w/ the cute little thing. (not obsessed lol) i think thier cute and really girly expecially w/ my pink cover but that may just be a girl thang and i dont know if your a girl or boy but if your a boy sorry ill give you a better answer than its cute
for a guy: i said nanos look girly but my advice is to buy a black one and maybe spice it up a bit with like a blue case or better yet leave it black~! nanos look good w/ rocker guys who wear lots of navy and dark denim ....(im crazy sometimes)

Well it really depends if you have more then 500 songs go with the mp3 but if you dont have that many the ipod would be good.

the mp3 is better it has more features and is more durable, it will last you longer and has a lot more storage and computer hookups. Ipods are mp3 players sold by apple but i have seen many mp3 that are way better then ipods.

well depends on what type of mp3 player...if it is like mine, i have a different file than iPods do on theirs, and mine is a 1gig and holds 500 songs...it also has radio and recording. nanos dont. but they do store pics. so look into what file the iPod has.

-the nano can hold music, podcasts, audiobooks, photos
Go with the nano if you don't have more than 500 songs to put on it.

if you use a cell phone get a "sliver"
it allows 100 songs and you dont have to have a mp3 player at all
