For that you will need a player with Rockbox. The Sansa Fuse is probably your best bet, and you can purchase it from the US with rockbox already installed so that it will talk out of the box. there are models up to 8GB and you can also use mini SD cards which will increase your storage space. I do not have any more info to hand but will try to find more precise information and report back shortly. I have one of these Sansa players and it works very well.

I can't run to a Victor player upwards of £200 at present. Are there any portable players out there which : are Easy for a VI person to use; don't rely on syncing from within complex computer programmes but instead let you copy and paste mp3 files from your computer to your portable device; have at least 4gb storage capacity, or play music stored on SD cards. I've heard it said that all portable players need you to sync from your computer through ITunes, Windows Media Player or whatever. I've heard other people say that this is nonsense. #so, does the device I want actually exist?
