Recommend me an MP3 player

My Zen Micro's battery has been dying a slow death for a while now, and it's time I upgraded to something else. I'm looking for 8-16G, dependable, long battery, no software hassles... Ipod nano doesn't impress me. I've been considering a Sony or a Sansa, but am open to all feedback. I use it at work, and may use it in the car, if I can get a decent transmitter solution... I don't need anywhere close to 120 gigs, and touchscreen really isn't a need, per se. Under US $150 would be nice.

RayB:
Samsung P2 or P3

rhoelsch:
Yeah, I've been looking at the P3...only sold by Dell, AFAIK, and Samsung's website doesn't even seem to mention it without some major digging... other than that, it seems like a nice player, if I could just find some decent info on the thing I could make a decision... this year's choices really seem to be crap...

ahofle:
If you can find one, a Sansa e280.  They appear on woot.com every once in a while for under $50.  It supports the Rockbox firmware which blows away any crappy stock mp3 player firmware I've seen (checkout www.rockbox.org).  I like this player because it has an SDHC expansion slot (rockbox allows it to go up to 32GB!) and easily replaceable battery.

SithMaster:
Does your micro have any audio jack problems (mine did)?

I'd recommend the Zune since it has a fm tuner.
