I loved it and I was very careful with it. Then, it just stopped working for no apparent reason. A huge waste of money. In other words, I don't trust them. They're a lot cheaper for a reason. Look into the Microsoft Zune. They're a little more expensive, but I would say it's well worth it. Much better than getting an overpriced iPod. :)

It is a definitely a good choice. As far as the difference between the 4gb EF and regular 4gb model I could find is that the 4gb model has a SD memory card expansion slot to up the memory capacity. That's a good thing if you have a whole lot of music and media to store. The default 4gb already holds about a thousand songs, but you could easily double that with a 4gb SD card.
The $84 for the 4gb model + $10-$15 for a 4gb card for 8gb total memory would still come out to less than the cost of an 8gb iPod Nano (retail $149).
In short, shell out the extra few bucks for the 4gb if you want to expand memory. If 4gb is good enough, well then get the EF model with the nifty case. I have no idea what "EF" exactly stands for though.
