Product name	Samsung YP-W3L (512MB)	Sony Walkman NWZ-S545 (16GB)	Creative Zen X-Fi2 (8GB)	Apple iPod touch (32GB; third generation)	Sony PlayStation Portable go PSP-N1000
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	7.5 Excellent	8 Excellent	7.6 Excellent	9 Spectacular	6.7 Very good
Review Summary	It's an interesting alternative to the regular MP3 player. Fashionistas should look forward to this tasty MP3 tidbit.	On paper, the S-540 series looks almost similar to the E-440 series, albeit with a larger screen and a pair of speakers built into the back. We were impressed by how much volume the two tiny speakers could throw out, and thats what makes the S-540 unique in its own way.	The Creative Zen X-Fi2 delivers good all-round audio and video performance, let down only by the screen quality and slow interface.	Though the updates are subtle, the third-generation iPod touch still leaves its competitors in the dust.	The PSPgo is a sleek and sexy redesign, but its high price tag and some frustrating caveats mean it's not a must-have upgrade for existing PSP owners--at least for now.
