CNET's Best MP3 Players For Podcasts

I had mentioned previously how, lately I'm listening to podcast a lot more than I am music. Well, I happened to come across an Mp3 Insider article on the best mp3 players for podcasts.

The criteria? At the very least have a separate menu sort dedicated to podcasts. Other desirable features include user-friendly podcast-management software, bookmarking capability (whether active or passive), accelerated fast-forwarding, variable playback speeds, and the ability to delete podcasts on the fly once you're done listening. All of the players here offer at least two of the extra features mentioned.

1. Zune 120 GB Video MP3 Player



2. Apple iPod touch 8 GB

Did you really need a review of the ipod touch? Really?

3. Samsung P3 16GB



4. Sony Walkman X Series 16 GB Video MP3 Player



5. Cowon D2+ 16 GB MP3 Player



6. SanDisk Sansa Fuze 8GB

Earlier this month Google announced that they are throwing their hat into the operating systems ring with their Chrome Operating System.

It looks like CNET.com's Molly Wood isn't too thrilled about google's foray into the operating systems field.
