What is the best mp3 player that's no more than $75, something that's good for hiking with, perhaps maybe a little running/jogging, and probably bowling, which I know isn't a real physical sport so it doesn't really matter if i just said that or not. I would like it if it was fairly small, not longer than a pencil so that I could ahve it in my pocket. I hope it's durable. And if you have had it and it's been good to you, would you mind writing a review about all its features and pros/cons (like sound quality, durability, y'know) and maybe some tips? Thanks in advance.

Try the SanDisk M230 - on sale now for only $40 at Staples and Best Buy. It has 512 MB flash memory so no moving parts used in hard-drive-based players, which can get knocked out of whack very easily when bumped hard enough.

I think for the price you can't beat an Ipod shuffle. Apple.com sells the 512MB model for $69.00. It's easy to use, compact, and has an impressive battery life. Here are the specs.
Specifications:
512MB = 120 Songs
12-hour rechargeable battery
.78 ounce
.33 inch thin
Includes
Built-in USB connector
Lanyard

I don't have an mp3 player in mind, but I know some good web tools.
http://www.cnet.com - has reviews of almost every mp3 player on the market
http://www.froogle.com - online shopping search - even if you don't want to purchase one from online, you can use this to guage the pricing
http://www.amazon.com - you might not buy it from them, but most of their products have been reviewed by customers, and you can see what the marketplace for mp3 players is like
