Samsung U5
The Samsung U5 is an inexpensive MP3 player with plenty of file format support, an above-average voice recorder, FM radio, an integrated USB stick, and a useful fitness program
The U5 holds only 2GB of music, the screen is miniscule, and there's no support for AAC or Audible files
If you're looking for a small, practical MP3 player to throw in your gym bag, the Samsung U5 is a great option that won't break the bank.

I HATE the little characters (popcons) on this thing. The good thing is you can make your own which can be a line if you want it to be

Nice price for a functional, decent looking a...
2 GBs holds more than you might think, the equalizer makes the sound quality pretty good and the Samsung software is intuitive
The earbuds rate somewhere between CR and AP, with a four-foot cord guaranteed to tangle. I hate the sound recorder, and wish I could figure out how to make it never turn on again. I also bet I lose the cap for the USB plug
