Default Best small MP3 player for an exercise bike

After the Christmas and New Year etc. I am in need of exercise and need coaxing back onto the turbo trainer for my bike.

I was thinking of buying an ipod shuffle to lure me back but is there a better MP3 player for the money to put a few songs from my MP3 collection on to exercise to

I don't want to spend more than about £70

Ipod seems the way to go but I could be convinced otherwise

Got my old man a Sony one for around that money. Excellent sound and easy to use.

Try Richer Sounds, they were recently selling the i-River IFP180 for £19.95. 128MB, FM radio and full on screen display with track/artist details. It's an amazing bit of kit at an unbeatable price.

Thanks for the replies!

Just as a matter of interest will the ipod play my normal mp3 collection as saved on my PC?

Seems like I'd be better off with Brun and Sillysi's choice otherwise

Yes the iPod will play mp3's.

We were looking for an mp3 player for the g/f's mum and we were going to get a shuffle (I'm a bit of a mac fan) however it not having a display was a major drawback, so we got a Sony, in fact, the model Brun has in the picture above. Have to say I'm rather impressed with the little device.

If we were wanting to spend more then we'd have got an iPod Nano, but we weren't, so we didn't.
