Creative

This PMP looks very promising with its 3.7 inch VGA 262,144 color LCD screen and video support for AVI, DivX, XviD, MPEG-1,2,4, WMV9 and Motion-JPEG. Inside you will find a 30GB 1.8” hardrive and hopefully will come in bigger sizes later. If not we will have to hack in a 60GB, I think that would be more reasonable considering it player almost everything. If Creative doesn’t screw this one up I think it will be a worthy adversary to the iPod photo in the mass market. It is only slightly bigger and heaver than the 60GB iPod photo.

It will retail for $400 and is available now for pre-order only in the US. Should I do it? I don’t know if I can resist the temptation.

[Thanks readers!]

I've had mine for about 2 months now, and I absolutely love it. This is a great player that is well-worth the cost.

SanDisk Sansa Clip

The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.
Samsung P3

The Samsung P2 was a success and the P3 is a very welcome and substantial update. Samsung has paid close attention to users on P2 issues and made great strides in addressing and improving most of them. The best feature of the P3 is its native video support. Most content you thow at it will playback without conversion on the great looking screen. Stop by the Samsung P3 forums for more details or check out our indepth P3 review.
Microsoft Zune 120

Sure, many of us are not big fans of the walled garden, but there are a lot of great things going on with the Zune- sturdy hardware, ultra easy to use user interface, and a media player that is worthy of editor’s choice. The best part of the Zune is the constant firmware and software updates virtually giving you a new device at each major refresh. You can check out the latest Zune 120 & 16 review or stop by our Zune forums for the latest.
Cowon iAudio D2

The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.
Phonak Audéo PFE

Phonak Audéo PFE offer outstanding clarity and precision; natural, dynamic mids and treble, and decent bass for a single armature in-ear phone. They handle dense, complex music very well. The PFE work well with most acoustic and some electronic music genres, but bassheads might have to look at other alternatives. They're great for sports as well, since they fit very securely.
