Hi,
I understand your concerns in regards to the size, but it seems most are heading in the same direction to keep things as small as possible for easy storage in a pocket and such… I also think the battery concerns are also for most units, because they’re making them for recharagability, so it’s more or less built in in most units.

Another interesting MP3 player, especially if you’re a radio buff, is the Pogo Radio Your Way LX model. It comes in a 128 mb version or 512 mb version. Each has a 1 gig expansion slot as well as am/fm digital programmable radio that you can record directly from either an external source via built in mic or plug in mic, record from an external source using a mini plug connector as well as recording from either radio. You can also set a timer to record from any source similarly to TVo for televisions… It’s about the size of a deck of cards or pack of cigarettes, for lack of a better comparison. You can merely cut and paste music files directly onto the player once it’s connected to the computer via the usb cord it comes with. You can order separately a docking station, a remote control, 1 gig expansion flash card, belt clip and etc.

I typically only put a few music files on mine, because I more or less listen to the radio unless on the bus traveling to work, I then play music files to block out diesel motor noise…. So, I’m now trying to learn how to put a large number of files on it via the 1 gig expansion card. You can play MP3, WMA and real audio files… If interested, go to pogoproducts.com and check out a few of their other gadgets…

Just a bit of FYI!

Best Regards,
Cornell

While the Zen Stone sounds initially attractive, I have some real concerns
about it.
For one, the unit is so small that one will sooner or later loose it I am
afraid.

For another, what happens when this battery no longer takes a charge.
To my mind, this sounds like a nice gimmick gift for graduation or
Father's Day.
And it will be nice for long as it works.
But I question the longevity of this unit.
