there are a bunch, I just got a rio nitrus, you can get an arm strap for it, it was 167.99, it holds 375 songs, most regular mp3 players only hold like 12, they are a little bit cheaper, but Id go for something that can hold more, plus the one I got is only 2oz, the others are heavier and cant hold as much

yeah, I saved up, aint no way Im gettin a cheapy that holds 30 times less music for only 40 bucks less
there are a few that are decent that you wear around your neck, be carefull of the memory though, some are 64mb, some are 128mb,and some are 256mb, the 64mb prolly holds 8 songs at most, 128 prolly 16, and the 256 prolly around 30, for me, even at 256, that is no where near enough for me,
hears a good link with different reviews and ratings, it helped me out a lot

but I use it in my car, at home, at the gym, plus I can have new music on it and not have to update it every time I want to hear different music, I would get sick of the same 8-10 songs each time
you have a 32mb and it holds 10 songs? wow, most only hold a couple at that memory

actually it has an internal battery, and the life is 16 FUCKING HOURS, thats the most in its class, it also comes with a charger, I bought this one after extensive reviewing, I mean read the feed back on zdnet reviews, it was voted a best buy, plus when it came out in sept it was around $299, so at this price its a steal, even best buy sells it for around $220

The FM radio is nice and also the SD card expansion slot to expand the 256Mg internal memory with another 256M card.
Soon the flash OS is to be upgraded that you can download to allow any size SD card, instead of the current 512M limit
I have a thing with internal rechargeable batteries as some have a lifespan of recharges and cannot be replaced.(IPOD)
This one takes 1 AAA battery and they last me about 8-12 hours
I bought NIMHydride rechargable AAA's..
Also Comes with a Media Player plugin so I can move stuff in/out right from my playlists in Media Player..
Or you can use realaudio or their console...

i got a creative muvo rip off, 128 meg for 80 bucks australian (50 odd US dollars), you can get armbands for them for another 10 bucks or so
its light, and uses aaa batteries

If you're planning to wear it to the gym you should get a belt clip model, not an arm band one. Most upper body exercises use the arms, and the player and cord can really get in the way.
Also, low memory players arn't that bad. I have a 64MB player, and I can get about 12 good quality songs on there (or 17 low quality songs). I only use it for the gym and if I go roller blading, jogging, etc...nothing that lasts over an hour anyway. The low memory ones are pretty cheap now too.
