ok, so what have you all got and how do you rate them?
I`m thinking of getting one, possibly flash based possibly not, but all advice gratefully received.
Has anyone got one of Sony`s new HD5`s? I like the look of this one and it`s got a rotating screen sensor ooOOOoo.

I`ve got an Archos 20 gig "Jukebox" and it`s lovely having 300+ cd`s at your fingertips can listen to what I want. Also can watch films on train etc on way to work. It`s a lovely machine and can be picked up cheaply on ebay these days

do you what - I don`t think I`ve heard of that one before? you`re not winding me up are you?
tell me more about it, what made you go for that instead of one of the Sony ones or an ipod?

It`s pretty annoying for those of us who bought the HD3 not too long ago! but it does semm to have many extra features for about the same price. Actually, I`ve been very impressed with my HD3, especially the battery life, which they seem to have even improved on the HD5

BIG BIG BIG vote for the Archos Gmini 400, 20GB of lovely space, plug and play support for protected WMA files. Nice very good quality screen not bad for watching a little 24 on the way to work!!! Can also leave movie files in there original format to stream to the TV, oh and record from the TV. :D
It does everything except make my coffee.
Get it now, go run buy it I`m telling you, you will not look back at Sony Shomny!!

LOL `watching a little 24 on the way to work!!!` I`d be tempted to jump into bushes to many times incase of exploding passersby! Still I might have to investigate cos it sounds cool.
As for the HD3, I love it, it is a bummer that the HD5 is coming out soooo soon afterwards but then again why not just upgrade, I think Sonicstage is meant to be much improved with the HD5, using version 3.1.
I can`t believe they managed to improve on battery life, I`m liking that a lot. looks purdy too, especially the silver one.
