    I recently broke my Creative Zen, don't know how it just stopped working, and need to buy a new one. The last few I've owned have been 2 creatives both of which just stopped working and an IRiver which I lost.

    I dont want to buy another Creative but dont really know much about the others on the market (I'm a bit technology retarded).

    All I want is 1 that is reliable, has a good bit of memory and is easy to use and costs around £200 (I live in London).

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    All depends on what features you want - iPod touch is great because it has wifi and access to the App store as well as that great screen for Video - on the other hand you may want something with a little more memory so the iPod Classic would also be a good choice - at the moment you'll get great value you can pick up a 16gb Touch for just over £215.

    Cheers Eamon,

    Dont need Video or Touch screen, if I could I'd go back to the IRiver but afaik they dont make the 40g anymore.

    All I want is loads of memory, reliability and something a child could use.
