Can you recommend me some good mp3 players, if not by personal usage, at least by specs. I am looking in buying either a good: heavy weight hdd player : ), preferably they won’t be heavy or a light weight player with smaller memory space. Money is no object : )

I would recommend any iRiver player, two of my friends have them and are very pleased. They both initially went for the ipod but after some research they both independantly decided to get iRiver's. There slightly more expensive than the iPod but I think its worth it.
I have an iAudio player which has served me well but to be honest i'd say the iRiver seems better.

I would go for a Iriver IFP 790. Small, stylish, great marks, supports .mp3, .ogg and .wma.

If you've got enough money available check out the Archos 420. It comes with 20, 40 or 80 GB,plays mp3 and wma. Also it plays avi and you may watch pictures in jpeg (no progressive jpeg) and bmp. And believe me the screen is just amazing, a few days ago i watched Magnolia while beeing on a longer trip.
You may also record in divx from your Tv or Sat.
iRiver will release a similar product soon iRiver PMP-120.

Theyare bit too big, got the M3 40 GB one, but I will sell it as it has a no ID3 Database

Nothing can come close to the iPod, if only for the user interface. Best by far. At least, the iPod mini and the new generation iPod. The click-wheel rocks.

I have a Rio Nitrus 1.5 gb (which I like) .... but they also have this a 5gb model (Rio Carbon)that's really small and probably more along the lines of what you're looking for.
http://www.digitalnetworksna.com/shop/_templates/item_main_Rio.asp?model=267
"Sporting an ultra-thin and tapered design, and with 25 percent more memory than iPod® mini, this tiny MP3 player, about the size of a business card, will slide into any pocket virtually unnoticeable. The Rio Carbon is capable of holding up to 80 hours of MP3 (160 hours WMA) music**, and with up to 20 hours of battery life on a single charge, music lovers need not worry about running out of juice. Supporting USB 2.0 and a host of file formats; users can download music efficiently and easily from most of their favorite online music sites. The Rio Carbon also includes voice recording and provides seamless integration and support of both the PC and Mac platforms."
Of course there's always the 20 gb Rio Karma too:

I'll recommand either Apple iPod mini 4GB or Creative Muvo2 FM 5GB
They both works like a charm. The sign of ipod mini is pretty nice, but the Creative Muvo2FM got 1Gb more than the ipod and just almost same price of the two...
Design --> iPod Mini
or else, go for the Creative Muvo2 FM 5GB
