I'm looking for a mp3 player that's decent for jogging\exercising.

I wanted to get the sandisk sansa clip, but its out of stock everywhere and most vendors i ask haven't even heard of it.

any suggestions?

one of the older nanos from ipod with the clip. Kind of rectangular shaped. I used to have a samsung one, but the ipod stays very secure and handles the sweat way better.

I ordered a refurbed unit from newegg.com Sansa Fuse for $40 a few months ago and it's still running strong as a jogging/biking MP3 also has video and FM tuner. They also have a refurb clip for $20.

elgordo, it says newegg doesn't ship internationally. otherwise, i would have gotten the sansa clip there. how did you get them to ship to you? there's a ton of other stuff on newegg i'd probably get as well if they ship internationally.

I used to have a Cowon G3 4GB player.

Amazing little device. It played 40+ hours on a single AA battery. Even had an FM tuner.

If you can still find these, I recommend getting it. The best part is this thing weights next to nothing, and has a small footprint.

Speaking of shipping internationally, overstock.com ships, and says they only charge actual cost for shipping. Has anyone tried them?

They have the Sansa Clip, several versions

http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/SanDisk-Sansa-Clip-4GB-MP3-Player-with-FM-Refurbished/4399743/product.html

Something like this is light enough that the shipping shouldn't be exorbitant.

Hmmm, I switched the settings, to South Korea and US dollars, and this is what the page looks like now:

http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/SanDisk-Sansa-Clip-4GB-MP3-Player-with-FM-Refurbished/4013660/product.html

I guess they might not jack up the shipping, but it appears they do jack up the base price some.

However, if you aren't a slave to fashion, there is an alternative Sansa you could get in Korea.

I apologize for not metioning that I have an APO box. As a gadget junkie I order all kinds of stuff but realize that international shipping may not be available to all.
