Portable Cd Mp3 Player

[G-PHoRCe]

I'm looking for a protable CD mp3 player, but I really don't know what to chose. Price is not an issue. I used to to have the iRiver SlimX 550 (just click on the link for info), I have 2 of those and always ended up having problem with them. Like the unit wouldn't work anymore if not plug..... I'm looking for something reliable, slim, and convenient. Thanks for your help

If price isnt an issue, why not get a hdd based mp3 player?

I want to be able to also play regular CD's, as I often get Mix CD's and don't have time to go home to rip them.

Well I have this RCA CD player http://www.rca.com/product/viewdetail/0,2588,PI700582-CI700009,00.html?(sorry don't know how to tie a link to a word) and I think it s great. The only things you probably wouldn't like about is it isn't very slim and when you use mp3 encoded disks on the player it takes a little bit longer to seek before playing. Finally I wouldn't use the headphoness hat are bundled with it cause they suck for audio quality.

I have also used a sony Mp3 cd player(sorry can't remember model) that is slim but at least for me the interface very hard to use and I could never figure out how to get it to quit beeping whenever I pressed a button. Finally to get to the battery compartment you have to open it up and take out the cd.

Hopes this helps in your quest for a new player.
