Thinking of buying an X20
Hey all,
I currently have an iriver E10, which I'm pretty happy with, but I want something with a bigger screen for watching video. I don't want anything too big like a PMP and I'm happy with 8GB of space, although 16GB would be nicer.

I am trying to decide between several players:
-iriver x20 8gb
-samsung yp-p2 8gb
-sansa view 16gb

The samsung seems like a really nice unit, but there is no expansion slot and it's a lot more expensive than the x20. The sansa view has 16GB of storage but the battery can't be replaced (apparently) after the warranty has expired.

Anyone have any advice which might be the best choice.

i would say go for the samsung yp-p2. the screen has an aspect ratio of 16:9. nowdays most of the movies and videos are widescreen.. if u use a player with 4:3 aspect ratio ull either end up cropping the video or scaling it so that it fits within the 4:3 screen.

I ended up going with a cowon D2 actually, because of its long battery life and SDHC card support.
