Yes, there are a lot of MP3 Players out on the market, and yes, it is odd that the ones that get the most press start with the little “i”. I think we all know that there are a lot of MP3 Players out there that are just as good, maybe even better, and are lower in price.
Like the Haier America Video MP3 Player, for instance, which is just as good as the iPod Nano, really. The 4GB version costs about $45, and the 8GB costs $55.
