So I have to find another.

Would you recommend yours or a certain seller?

For it to be suitable it has to be:
No thicker than 7mm.
ANY size memory
Must be able to play Video files (any format)
No smaller than a 1.5" screen

And most importantly of all, it has to work for longer than 5 MINUTES!!

Thanks in advance.

See my review on the FUll Metal Platinum from UXCELL -> here. I think it fulfulls the requirements quite nicely, its like a cheap version of the 2nd gen Nano. Mind you, I haven't had it much longer than 5 minutes.... but I'm quite sure it will last a while. None of my players have died on me yet. If the battery does die, note that it doesn't mean the player is bricked. Theoretically, you should be able to change the battery on the FMP. Someone here said they did, I believe. However, the player you bought is one I told people to watch out for in my Nano review ebay guide (as in -dont buy-). Screwless casing normally means you can't open it to change the battery.
