device with best SQ and price value?

(1/2) > >>

Alex M:
right now I have an E270 but I want something better that lags less(doesn't take 5 seconds+ to change a track).  A removable battery or reset hole/switch are essential.  The E270 does not have those easily accessible(screws on the back, no reset button).  Video playback should be better than the Sansa.  Price is a bit of an issue so the iRivers are out of the question.
What should I go with?

nls:
The sansa has a hardwired reset that you trigger by holding the power button for about 15 seconds.

If you mean smoother video playback and no smaller resolution you can skip all the portal player based players, and if irivers are out of the question, (iaudio x5 has lower res display than sansa e200) you have narrowed the field down to... the gigabeat F/X (assuming you are only interested in currently supported targets). I don't know how the SQ is on the gigabeat though.

Alex M:
do the ipod photo and 5th gen sound worse?

Llorean:
They have worse video playback. They don't have the noise problem the e200 has though.

Alex M:
and when you say the noise problem, you mean the distortion, right?  SQ is a priority over video quality though..
