Yeah, read a review in "Stuff" magazine, they classed it an "an ipod beater" so thinking of getting that one, they're rare in the UK though, pretty much all the ones on Ebay are from abroad, and i'm a bit weary of buying on incase it fucks up :S

Rio Karma was designed to beat the iPod.
Been trying to find one under £200 on eBay for months but they're all in the US

The warranty side of things isn't normally the problem, it's the import charges!

Yeah, other than the iPod the only one I'd get would be a Rio Karma.
There's a cut down version of the Karma, with less memory etc, but there's no point - if you get any you want 15-20gb storage minimum.

CL's have a habit of not supporting their products after a while.
I had two of their webcams where the drivers fucked up my graphics card and needed a full drewston to fix.

Exactly - the GOOD things are always expensive.
If you were to buy me for example... you would get change from a tenner.

15gb is would be the shit iPod lol - do a load of searches on the iPod to find out what problems people have had.
The latest ones should have all the bugs ironed out.
There's a baby iPod too I think - a lot cheaper and funkier.

get a mp3 Headunit and your SORTED mate 
but if you want one for jogging or something, then get an ipod, and tbh whats up with a 15gig ipod? thats 15gigs of music, which is nerly my whole collect of tunes (about 4000 odd) and its the new version from the piccies, so all the battery probs they had should be sorted

I got an MP3 Headunit, was tempted by the Creative Zen, will try n have a play with it tomorrow at work, not been impressed with Creative stuff recently though :S
AND as i said before don't want an Ipod, my mates got one, and he'll bitch at me if i get one 
Want something different, that not everyone has got or wants.
Think it's the Karma i'm probbly gonna go for anyways. Anyone seen one in the flesh ?
(I can't sing, so i'm not singing to myself !)
