As to storage, I only plan on loading three to four audiobooks and just a bit of classical music.

The additional 2GB will be enough for a few audiobooks and some music.

I agree that it's a poor choice for audiobooks and music; and I wouldn't dream of using it as my primary listening device. It's too big and fragile. I just want some loaded for times that I might be without my MP3 player.

For audiobooks, my primary device is a Sansa Clip+. With it, I can do music, audiobooks, podcasts, and FM radio. It'll support MP3 and WMA audiobooks from the library; and audiobooks from Audible. Plus it's very small, very inexpensive, and has a mSD card slot. It's the perfect player.

totally off topic but the Sansa Clip+ is nice, very nice one of the best sounding DMP/MP3 players on the market, much nicer sound than my Nano.


ok sorry
