Ipod nano broken 😥

It's finally given up. I use it for listening to the radio whilst I'm running. I like the unpredictability of the radio and the nano is a perfect size for tucking on my waist band. I don't like the idea of running with my phone in hand or on an armband. Anybidy.kniw of a similarly sized radio device. I don't need fitness tracking as have Garmin watch.

I've got a belt. I wear it under my vest. Also don't like phone in hand! 😎

I’m sure that you could buy an iPod nano on eBay for not much money.

That's what I'd hoped but even used ones are very expensive

I bought a used one from a store that sells second-hand technology and it died within 6 months.

Flip belt. You can pop keys, phone/mp3 in, it stays in place. Allows free hands.

Lots of size and colour choices 🤗

I use an mp3 player from Aldi which is in the headphones. Battery lasts about 1.5hours.

I have a Sony Walkman mp3 is good, lasts hours. The size is 3x6cm roughly. Goodmans used to do a USB stick sized one. None of the above do radio though.

Yeah, Mrs Hoagy loves her little “watch type” iPod nano, and it is also now playing up, so we did the same re finding a replacement and drawing a blank. Shame as they were great little devices.
