Apparently it also supports FLAC playback, which will be great when I get around to re-ripping all of my CDs again.
What's navigating the mp3s like? - in terms of skipping through the library on the move?
I have 2GB of music and the speed doesn't increase when you skip tracks - sometimes I don't bother even jumping tracks if they're too far away.

My 10 year old Sony MZ-RH10 mini disc player, battery lasts maybe 10 hours. It's not technically an MP3 player, but the discs can store MP3s so, yeah. It's been a solid performer over the years and being able to play all my music in 1411 kbps wav format on the go is ideal for an anal audiophile like myself.

Too late to the party, but I would have recommended what you got. It's freakin amazing. Battery goes on FOREVER. Also the battery doesn't seem to drop when you leave it. Come back 2 months later and it'll still have plenty of juice. It sounds brilliant, especially with FLAC files. Get yourself a massive microsd.
Also I flashed it with Rockbox so it has a few more features - I'm told you can remove this but I have never tried - attempt at your own risk etc.
Only thing to be aware of is that they can be a bit picky about how you disconnect them from your PC. I always press the systray button for "remove device safely" just to be on the safe side.

3 bajillion GB (32GB)
If you are using FLAC, you can never have too much. If you are using MP3 I guess you can get away with 32GB for a lot of music.
You can get fast 64GB cards for not too much money now. Best check that it works with SDXC though first. It definitely works with SDHC.
My FLAC collection is around 200GB now for 400+ albums so I'm a fair way off getting a card I can get the whole lot on. Give it 2 years maybeLast edited by charlesr; 30-05-2013, 18:50.

I've never understood this talk of sound quality difference between MP3 players as I've never spotted any obvious differencesw between the players I've owned using different headphones/earphones but I have noticed a problem with my 2nd gen Shuffles. When listening to music at low volume at night I can hear lots of static, similar to what a typical unshielded PC desktop/laptop soundcard would produce(my Macbook doesn't do this) and I also hear this when connecting to a hifi(just like with a typical PC). If I turn the volume up it's fine but I've never heard it with the 1st gen Shuffle or my iPods/iPhones. I assumed it's because of how tightly packed everything would be compared with the 1st gen Shuffle.

3 days solid use at full blast. Remarkable.
I'm liking the menu navigation and the speed of the fast forward - miles better than the zen.
Kit recommends.
