Mate had one of these, but ended up chucking it out as it was BANKRUPTING her with teh cost of batteries- it chews them up big time.

Hi guys and gals. Following on from the article about the £5 mp3 player, I thought I'd add my own two pennies.

If you are the lucky owner of a 1gig SD card then you can actually save a bunch of notes on an mp3 player by purchasing the mp3 card reader from Scan here.

It has no internal memory, no flashy lights, no display and no frills, but stick an SD card full of your fave mp3's in it and it will play like there's no tomorrow.

Not bad for the price and good quality. If you don't own an SD card you can pick up a 1GB one for around a tenner nowadays so still a great bargain to be had at around.

To put this in perspective, a 4GB ipod is around £80. The card reader with 4 1GB cards would be about £60. A small saving, but a saving nonetheless.

Yeah, I did find it odd none of the sites seemed to mention the battery life.

Anybody have a free P+P code for https://www.halfcost.co.uk ? I found it when looking through Google and Froogle for the best price on a Sony NWA1200 Walkman 8GB MP3 Player. It's £67.29 on https://www.halfcost.co.uk!

Play.com has the same item for £129, it's even £99.95 on Ebay (on a Buy It Now). It's £100+ everywhere else (even on Froogle etc) :
http://froogle.google.co.uk/froogle?hl=en&q=SONY+SILVER+8GB+WALKMAN&oe=UTF-8&scoring=p
.... so it's £40-£70 cheaper than everywhere else.

The link for Half Cost is:
