    Are there any MP3 players that are also radio(and aren't as big as a bus)?

    Check out some of the IRiver products.

    The wee IRiver 1GB MP3 player I have not only is an FM Radio, but will let you record FM radio to MP3 *and* schedule recordings when you want to record FM programmes *and* also has a built-in mic.

    Check out the Cowon iAudio X5L 35 hour battery life 30GB, MP3, radio, line in recorder, video playback, voice recorder etc. etc.

    I have one and its great.

    I second the Iaudio X5l, ive had a number of mp3 player through the years incl. iriver h120, iriver h10 and an ipod (all were great except the ipod) but nothing compares to the iaudio, its just a class machine and worth every penny I spent on it.

    TBH i dont know how people buy mp3 players without radios? It can get very boring listening to the same music and its good to listen to the radio for news, talk shows, sports events and the odd live gig.

    What's the average price for the ones mentioned above, anyone recommend either of these(from Argos) - iTronics MP3 player or the BUSH MP3 player(as far as I can see that's the only one they sell that has a radio).

    What about a Creative zen vision m.The 30gb one is about 280 euro and has a radio and a radio recorder(this feature has been restored in the new firmware).This is quite big but has got good reviews
