I am looking for mp3 player very easy to operate. I'm the type who calls up my computer tech son and ask him to tell me what did I do wrong......again.

I would like to have photos feature and fm tuner. I really am not looking forward to dealing with software or firmware. I've read about how they are difficult or don't work.

If anyone know such mp3 players, please let me know.

Thanks!

I'm not sure what kind of software or firmware you are talking about

or the size of storage you want either

but i recommend the Creative Zen Microphoto

personally, I have a Creative Zen Micro and it is the best mp3 player i have ever bought, and the Creative Zen Microphoto is the same thing except with a photoviewer and a larger capacity (8GB) 4000 songs

________________________________

Now, if you do not want to deal with ANY software at all, but no photoviewer or anything, I once owned a SanDisk MP3 player that didn't have any software or anything (do not even need windows media) and you drag and drop the songs onto the mp3 player. It also uses flash media so the capacity is alot smaller (1 GB) 250 songs.

I would probably recommend the Sandisk E280. Below is a link to an online review that also leads you to a video demo on YouTube. From YouTube, you can search for other video reviews of the E280.

I would probably buy the Sandisk Sansa E280 myself, but it doesn't support my preferred audio format called FLAC.

Here's another review for the E280 on YouTube. I lost track of how many times he said the word "ummm..."

Wow. Alot of freakin ums. The e280 is your best bet i think.

One of the many things I like about mine is the back of it is a solid scratch free gunmetal.
