3 out of 5 stars Decent for its price, but quite buggy....   August 26, 2005
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I had bought this in Nov for something to listen to on the bus and at work, about a week in I noticed that the screen had gotten really dusty and that there was nicks on the body, not much of a problem, then I found that to copy alot of music at once I would have to load everything....and then meet a error screen and everything gets all buggy. Still not to bad but annoying as hell.


3 out of 5 stars Very good   August 23, 2005
I got the player to listen to audio books with it. I can
do it however it take a lot of time to get it onto the player.



3 out of 5 stars Darn good product   November 17, 2005
 1 out of 3 found this review helpful

I've heard tons of people rave about their Ipod's. If only they had waited. This mp3 packs more memory and comes with all the necessary tools (carrying case, charger, 100 free downloads, two sets of headphones). Although I was discouraged originally by some reviews I realized that some of their gripes aren't a big deal, so its based on the individual purchaser. The battery power could be a little strong but, its never conked out on me so I can't complain about that either. I'll come back in a month if things go from bad to worst to update you ... I hope I won't have too.


2 out of 5 stars Decent item for the price -- but not as good as iPod   April 19, 2005
 24 out of 28 found this review helpful

I got this package upon its release because it had much more space and features than the iPod Shuffle (at the same price), and was significantly cheaper than the iPod mini.

Good features:
+ Built-in radio tuner is well integrated and works
+ Voice recording is a neat option if you want it
+ Included earbuds and headphones are decent
+ Sound quality is below average but decent for a portable device.
+ Driverless, no need to use proprietary software like iTunes.

Bad aspects:
- Since it uses the computer directory rather than building its own index via proprietary software, be prepared for a lengthy indexing wait each time you change something on the drive.
- User interface is "iPod-esque" but much clunkier and harder to use
- Battery life is significanly less than the 10 hours in the specs
- Doesn't charge through USB, requires a largish AC adapter

I could overlook the ergonomic and usability weaknesses in this item if the battery were just a bit better. As it is, I find myself wishing I had held out for the higher priced and higher quality iPod from Apple.



2 out of 5 stars Good player but problems   December 1, 2005
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I had gotten this mp3 player at the beginning of the summer. I had enough of carry my cds and cd player around. I searched the net and found this player. It was a good price but dont be fooled. You can do a lot better. As they say, "You get what you pay for," and thats exactly what I got. But it did come with some sweet comfortable headphones and earbuds. The player had some great features but it was slow. The more music you put on it, the slower it runs. After a few months, the buttons began to stick and become slow. Not very reliable. Like many other people who bought the product, I eventually got a sad face and a bug on the screen. I tried recording something and then when the player went to save it, it froze and showed the sad face. I would not recommend this player to anyone out there. Sorry but keep looking. There are so many other players out there and this one just is not the one.
