Can anyone recommend an mp3 player for jogging?

Wants:

1. >= 2Gb storage
2. FM radio
3. heartrate monitor
4. splashproof
5. Some way of attaching to my person without pockets (eg. arm strap)
6. solid state memory (no hard disks)

Had a quick google at it but struggling to find something that combines all the above.

Have you checked on eBay?

These two conditions are hard to satisfy
>> heartrate monitor
>> splashproof

As for the rest, you can find loads of options on eBay.

Not checked EBay as yet, tend to be of the opinion EBay is full of lots of cheap tat. I want something that will last ;)
I'll take a look though, couple of cheap one may work out more cost effective in long run.

Of google sports MP3 players and see what comes up.

I would recommend ensuring they play WMA too. Better quality and smaller files.

Done the whole search thing, but I like to get personal opinions from people who have used something they liked.

Will have a look at that link.
