All this talk about mp3s has gotten me thinking about the mp3 players I had in the past and how they all in some shape of form have gotten me to this point.

1. Iomega Clik Drive. This is how it all got started circa 2000, 2001. There was a player that went with this that I cannot seem to find anywhere
online. It fitted about the length of a CD of songs. I had to carry 2 or 3 of these to make it throught the typical Gotham daily commute.

2. Then I went and got the Creative Zen NX. This was the answer because it handles both mp3s and .wma (which are still the majority of files that I have). For more on this, look at my previous post.

3. Then when I got the Palm Treo 650, I got the SanDisk 2GB SD Card to only take my absolute favorites with me. This fits around 500 songs give or take.

4. Now with the Palm Centro, I have the SanDisk microSD Card. Now I have about 150 songs on it now. The important thing is now I’m not in such a rush frezny to get a MP3 Player per se.

In the end, when the right one comes along, just like everything else in life , I’ll know it.
