    The fabric camera case I found in Tesco, for just under a fiver (someone else got theirs for half that at Tesco), couldn't be a better fit, and is very durable and well-padded. Could save you some money as well as saving on the p&p too.

    Yeah, I picked up one of those for £3 but thought the manufacturers one might have holes for connectors, maybe a window to see the screen through etc.
    The Tescos camera case is good enough for carrying it from home to work, well padded as you say, but I have to get it out and put it back at either end of the journey. (Its a hard life ain't it!) :)

    Did a google and solved the problem!

    Heh, turns out I got a different Tescos case to that one, but hey, £3 and it fits well enough.

    Does anyone actually have one of these? I'd like to know what sound quality is like. Can't really argue with that price for 40gb.

    Hi Revs
    First of all I thanked you by mistake (not that I wouldnt thank you anyway) Im new to this. The Venturer 40 gig MP3 player a bit basic but effective. And it sounds great well worth the 49.99.:T
    Cheers buddy :beer:

    Too late now if anyone wanted one. They've been dropped from the new catalogue.
