|

Hi there, am in a bit of a hurry right now, will elaborate later if needed, but basically
please can you recommend an Ipod/whatever and the best earphones.
All I want is to listen to music at the gym, and drown out Korean music. I do not need any more than the music function.
Thanks |

don't know if you can get them in korea, but you might want to try the creative stone. it's pretty small, and creative is supposed to have good sound quality. an Ipod shuffle would be useful because it can clip onto your clothes. |

yeah i got a creative zen stone. i love it, but i'm pretty sure they're not in korea. it only cost $35 from the us though, but then again no one would ship it to me, i had to have it shipped to my mom then to me, a pain. you should also get in-ear canal buds or whatever they're called. There are tons around if you want good ones check out reviews here http://reviews.cnet.com/4370-7877_7-229-102.html?tag=lnav |

Just go to your electronics store and find one with English menus and a form factor you like. As far as headphones go, I have the Sennheiser PX 100 Collapsible Headphones
I hate earbuds, and this is the lightest-weight choice with the best sound quality I could find. |

I have the Cowon D2. My friends have I-Pods, Zens, I-River etc. and all say the sound quality with the D2 is superior (when used with decent headphones). I use Sony earbuds. The touchscreen takes a little getting used to and is not for everyone. The SD expansion slot is also a great feature as the unit itself is not very big - mines only 4GB + 8GB sd card. I have loads of music, movies, pictures and files on it. I'd recommend it. |
