I am looking for an MP3 player with external speaker(s) - do they exist ?

My preferences would be SD card based and as long as it is portable I dont mind how big it is.

Any advice

I'm unaware of a portable MP3 player with speakers. Speakers suck up a lot of battery power so I doubt you will find one with a built-in speaker.

I can think of two alternatives for you. Since you didn't provide much specifics on your needs, I don't know how relevant the suggestions are.

One, attach portable speakers to the player. In the case of iPods, there are many speaker setups that specifically integrate with the iPod. I know that there is even a company that sells a bag which allows you to carry the iPod and Altec Lansing's In-Motion speakers together.

Two, get a Pocket PC. PPCs have integrated speakers and most models can accept SD cards. You will usually find a headphone jack as well on most models. The biggest drawback to a PPC is battery life. Using the built-in speaker, I doubt you will get more than 5 hours of play.
