Wouldn't an external battery be much cheaper than buying a separate device? I mean, my iPhone does everything, and my awesome, 200100 MAH battery only cost me around $50. I will admit that I do have one of those Sansa ClipZip mp3 players with Rockbox on it, with a 128 GB micro SD card in it for my large audiobook and music collections, to say nothing of my collection of personal recordings, but this is more for convenience sake than anything else. Sometimes I just want to use a device without a touchscreen that I can stop very quickly with the press of just one button. I know, we have the two-finger double-tap, and it works very well, but I really do like this tiny player. Lol I guess I'm just saying everything the people who have multiple iOS devices said earlier. The player was $109, and the card was around $40, so still cheaper than an extra iPod, but still. Lol I actually still have my old iPod Nano. It's the generation before they put in the video player. My husband and I still use it almost every night to listen to the audiobooks we have that didn't come from BARD.
