Phiips GoGear 1GB is also an option. I'm using it and I like it, but beware, it has USB transfers and charging and is a pendrive basically so viruses can ruin things. Also, it gives very low transfer speeds. But, as a music player, I have no complaints, especially with its battery. Long battery life, really! You will need better earphones than the ones you get in the bundle as most mp3 players have rathr bad earphones bundled.

San Disk Sansa 2 GB + 2 GB microSD card + Creative EP630.
Or any other player + Creative EP630.
Please don't spend all your funds only on the player alone - The bundled earphones are crap. That extra 800 for earphones is worth spending for instead of some fancy features!

Wat about Transcend V30?? It has FM Radio(Save upto 20 Channels), 2GB inbuilt memory(Not expandable), Voice Recording, FM Recording, Line-in Recording and more.....I'm satisfied with bundled earphones.
