That info can't be right surely? the one I posted can hold up to 2000 songs the one you've just given a link to 1000 songs and its bigger memory.

Brief details is fine, if people want to read more they can click on the link

Price in the title inc. postage would be very nice, also.

The number of songs that can be stored depending on the quality you rip your music files at. The standard for quoting figures tends to be 128Kbps MP3s but some will use other figures while in some cases it will just be mistypes... But there's no indication on the actual page that the Dixons player is 4GB (it doesn't mention any size) and I really do think it's the 1GB model.

EDIT: (Dedcon verified that the Dixons model is indeed the 4Gb model so I guess it is true).

Voted hot because it is a good price but I'd find 2GB a little limited and would opt for 4GB, but that's just me personally. I also dislike the green one. Would rather have blue, or at a push, orange.

4GB model on Amazon for £78.20

One reason both the 2Gb and 4GB versions may be cheap is because the Plus model is out which adds video replay.

The Dixons offer is definitely a 4GB.
You can get a 1GB for £17.99 + P&P
I think it is because they have brought out the V+ but if you want to watch video, you would be far better going for a bigger screen on say a 130GB Zen or Ipod.

I know that there are some good bargains but somehow I don't think you'll get a Zen V for £17.99.
