My wife would like an IPod or MP3 player for Christmas? Any ideas about which one to get?
Thanks in advance.

Smart phone would have that function.
Is there a real need of mp3 player?

I would recommend a sansa clip mp3 player if using a phone is not an option..

I don't have any specific recommendations, but things to consider would be:

• How many songs/minutes/gigabytes will you want the device to store?
• What file formats do you want supported (MP3, FLAC, WMA, OGG, MP4, etc...?)
• How much are you willing to spend?
• Do you want the device to be mounted like a hard drive, so you can copy music using a file manager, or are you happy to use proprietary software?
• What operating systems need to be able to support the device (Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.)?
• Do you need a screen to more easily navigate between tracks and folders?
• Do you have any preference of battery type -- built-in? user-replaceable? standard disposable?

Thinking about the above might help narrow-down the choice.

Price is main question. I do recommend the Ruizu X02 at the cheapest end of the scale
