well after hours of research and looking at 'top mp3 players' websites, here we go-
its all between these three-

Creative Labs NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra 30GB ($200) - http://us.creative.com/products/product.as...lSpecifications

Rio Carbon 5GB ($189)- http://www.digitalnetworksna.com/shop/_tem...o.asp?model=267

Zen Micro 5GB ($219)- http://us.creative.com/products/product.as...95&campid=20506


anyone have any of these? or any recommendations?

is 30GB too much?? I have like 15GB of music, but i don't need it all on at once, do i?! help

Definitely the Zen Micro.

Ohhh I just found the Zen Touch now - http://us.creative.com/products/product.as...lSpecifications

That looks zesty..

But now it makes my choice harder!!! Im down do the Zen Xtra, Zen Touch, or Zen Micro

I'm just worried I'll regret only getting 5GB .. but I dont know..

My vote goes for Zen Micro too

get the largest capacity you can afford. With creative products you wont be disappointed.
