Review Summary

JVC's ultracompact XA-MP101W MP3 player doesn't bring anything new to the table.

The stylish yet unwieldy MPIO FY700 proves that looks aren't everything.

The MPIO FL400 is OK as an MP3 player necklace, but with its relatively high price and lack of new features, there's no compelling reason to buy it.

The SwiMP3 could add some fun to your swim routine, if you can afford it--just beware of potential nausea-inducing inner ear imbalance.

The SanDisk Sansa series will be the pick for those looking for an affordable WMA-friendly player packed with more features than the Apple iPod Shuffle, but if you want top-notch sound quality, stick with the latter.
