im looking for an mp3 player that works well with running.
what i mean by that is i want it to be unintrusive and light possibly with bluetooth headphones/buds if they exist.
any recommendations?

d
 
thanks
which series do u think is the least intrusive or easiest to run with without it bouncing all over the place

d
 
i run with the 800 series all the time. it comes with an arm band you attach the player to. highly recommended... i have 3 actually...
 
whats the difference between the 700 and 800 series
the 700 series seems lighter and smaller per description
otherwise i cant tell a difference and the 800s are more?

D
 
I actually called up Iriver asking about the differences and they said it was cosmetic. Also, some stores seem to carry 700 or 800 but not both.
 
anyone know of a good place to get these things
bestbuy seems to sell them exactly at msrp

Amazon.com and Newegg.com have the best prices on them. Newegg is sometimes $5-10 dollars more, but their shipping is fast fedex.

I purchased my IFP-790 for $165 a few months after it came out - I think it's about $120 on the above mentioned sites now. Extremely good value.
 
Costco sells the IFP-796 (512 MB) for $139.99. Great deal if you ask me since it comes with Costco's fabulous 10 year warranty...

thanks

off to costco i go later this week

i spend way to much money at costco
 
The music playback is better than my pgo player.

It takes a single aa battery and really lasts awhile
with this, even when recording. Its got pass through,
you can connect another output dvd, radio, and listen
through the i river headphone jack. Just press the record
when you hear something good.

I can't recommend it for a beginner as it is complicated
to use and setup.
