"Several SD-expandable MP3 players are available either at or near lowest-we've-seen prices. A best bet: The Lexar LDP-200 Secure Digital-Expandable MP3 Player in Red for $19.99 at JR.com (http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product_Id=4021211&JRSource=linkshare.datafeed.LXR+MPB-231) With $5.95 for shipping, that ties our last mention as the lowest total price we've seen. It features a backlit LCD and accepts Secure Digital cards over 1GB. (It doesn't include earbuds or an SD card.) Other expandable players:

* Music3 Portable USB MP3 Player w/SD Card Slot for $15.95 at Geeks.com (http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=M301&sourceid=qIasRKi5AiOFAlnvzFcl&cm_ven=CJ&cm_pla=0039448524&cm_ite=M301) (down $5);

* Since many of these don't include Mac drivers, a separate Secure Digital card reader is required to transfer files. "

It's only $20 for an MP3 player that accepts SD cards of up to and over 1gb. I thought that was pretty hot. But I don't know the quality/reliability with these MP3 players, but for only $15 ( the cheapest) and up to $20-25 you can't really go wroung =D. But has anyone else ever buy one of these cheap SD required MP3 players ?

Includes: earbud headphones, lanyard/necklace, & USB extension cable.

Secure Digital (SD) Cards Not Included

This is a US site, plus UPS shipping only, so we'll get raped by UPS charges. Very cold deal.

I just got the Sansa and although I've only had it for a ciuple of days but I really like it so far. If you are using it with with the usb cable or a cigarette lighter transmitter, it uses that power instead of battery, which is a nice touch (unless you are really into a song and want to take it out of the car...) It has a couple of other drawbacks, but out of the players I've owned it is by far my favorite.

All US deals. Pointless when you add UPS charges.

The deals are good, but the OP might want to change the title to include USA only.

I realy like the Sansa myself because it also have the Asian text for ID tag, FM radio, and a very long battery life.

Ya, I guess the UPS fees will rape us a lot. So I added USA deals to the title. I thought they might have been good deals, kinda forgot about the border fees lol.

I never said the deals were bad.
