Do one of those "get a free iPod" things. I just got an iPod Touch from one of those.

I'd get the Touch. It has a nice touch screen, WiFi, and an innovative user interface.

I used to be anti i-pod but I have to say the I-pod touch is pretty awesome. I didnt want to leave it in the apple shop today. Shame it has pretty terrible memory for the money. Im gonna get one for xmas though.

Creative just released a 32 gb flash Zen, so I expect apple to counter relatively soon.

I like the Creative Zen (8 gigs). If you want more storage i would go for an Archos 605 (80 gigs or 160 gigs), you will be a little above your $300 range, but they are really nice units (the new 705 is nice too, but it is even more expensive).

You could also go with the Ipod Classic (smaller screen) or the Creative Zen Vision M (i have an older one and i like it, don't know if there is a new model).

Get a Samsung P2. It has all the features of the iPod Touch excluding Wi-Fi. But it makes up for it by having Bluetooth instead. So you can use Bluetooth wireless headphones, or you can connect it with you cell phone that has Bluetooth and you can answer your cell phone without even touching it. I've tried it out at Best Buy in comparison to the iPod Touch and this blows it out of the water.

My reccomendations:

1. Samsung P2

2. iPod Touch

3. Samsung T10

4. Insignia Pilot

5. Zune 2

Zune 80 is $250 and has a 3.2 inch screen and 80 gigs. It's awesome for videos.

I was looking for a Zen M but they seem to be out of production, well, everywhere.

I'm not too keen on the lower memory players.
