    Hiya,

    Thanks for your reply......the reason I want a cheap one is that I probably won't use it all that often....(having two kids, etc.....don't have time for much these days),

    It really is just to use a few times probably, then pass onto my 6 year old!

    Ta

    If it's just a cheapie that you want for a holiday, my son got this one from Argos........£29.99, 128mb and the sound quality seems good.

    https://www.Mymemory.co.uk have an SD Card MP3 player. Its not the most attractive but since its memory is by SD card not sealed in you can upgrade it later on. The player is £12.99 plus SD card £9.66 for 128mb, £15.94 for 256mb etc.

    Otherwise try ebay for the little usb memory key type players, although most ship from Hong Kong. I have bought 2 of these and they are good - brilliant sound, but the headphones that come with them are junk.

    128mb is workable but doesn't hold much - 256mb or better is much more realistic.
