    Updated: 10-08-05

    Overall Rating: 2 Star Review

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Playback time (I THINK: basing that on what's written in the manual: 40 hours)

    Weaknesses: Recording time!! Manual says NOTHING about no more than 2 - 3 hours of battery life when recording. Also, untimely 'freeze-up!' Had to remove/reinsert battery to continue.

    Overall Evaluation: The 16 hours of storage was absolutely perfect for the recording of an event that I wanted to record. With 40 hours of battery life (playback), I figured I would at least get 20 hours to record (only needed 16). Was shocked that recording had stopped after only 2-3 hours of recording because of battery drain. (Same was true with all of the subsequent batteries, so not bad batteries) Was further shocked when recording had stopped because the unit had 'froze up.' Per the manual, when buttons become inoperable, check "hold" button or remove/reinsert battery. Had to do latter. BUT had lost more of my recording! This turned out to be finickier than the worst P.C. I've ever worked with.

    Duration of ownership:2 Months

    Strengths: Light weight, good sound.

    Weaknesses: Hard to insert the USB cable

    Overall Evaluation: This is a good product I would recommend. It gives good sound, light weight and fairly easy to use. Unlike the Iriver I had, files can be up loaded and down loaded like a flash drive without any special program. Negatives: The little plastic cover on the port makes it hard to insert the USB cable. The file navigation is very touchy. Because the same button is used for different functionalities depending on the length of time pressed, you might have to try a few times to get the function you want.

    Duration of ownership:1

    Strengths: Small (very portable), backlit display, FM tuner (which is a must for me), sturdy casing, extra goodies included in package (i.e. lanyard, USB cord and adapter, protective suit, battery headphones, and line-in cable). Different equalizer modes - includes

    Weaknesses: Small control buttons, but then again I did choose this unit because if it's small size. The quality of the voice recordings is poor. Sound quality of MP3 playback could use some improvement - not the best, but not the worst. There is no direct way to swi

    Overall Evaluation: Overall, I am satisfies with this unit. It's small enough to tuck in my pockets when I'm at the gym, and it does everything that I need it to do - although, sometimes I have to fumble trough a couple of menus. My only suggestion is that the menus were a bit more user friendly or, simply, that there were a direct way to activate the FM tuner.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Pro: small, pretty, long battery hour. The screen is quite useful, 4 lines of display

    Weaknesses: Con: fair sound quality. Software has a little problem, more information can be found on cnet. There are some good reviews there.

    Overall Evaluation: overall, 8.5 out of 10. I don't regret buying this little gagdat. I did quite a research before my purhuse. Compared to apple ipod shuffle, it's much more functional and better made. Compared to other popular mp3 players like creative muvo, sandisk, it's much smaller. So if you want a small yet powerful mp3 player, this should be a good one to grab

    Strengths: easy to use, very light weight, reasonable price, a plenty of storage(1G)

    Weaknesses: cover for battery is a little bit weak, it needs to be careful! Nothing else

    Overall Evaluation: This is a significantly wonderful MP3! I have researched for a month in order to buy an MP3. Through much consideration, I decided to buy this. Yes, I am very satisfied with its quality. I also want to recommend this to buy.

    Duration of ownership:5 Days

    Strengths: easy to use, small, a lot of features such as FM radio, recoding, mp3 of course....

    Weaknesses: no arm band

    Overall Evaluation: I am really satisfied with this small and convenient machine. I was looking for a mp3 with radio and recorder together to make my life excited. I think this is the one. But the capacity for the purpose of recording radio content is not as big as I have expected.

    Duration of ownership:1

    Strengths: Long battery life

    Weaknesses: I haven't found any yet

    Overall Evaluation: I am very happy with this mp3 player so far. It was easy to set up. I like that it uses a AA battery so that there is a longer battery life. It also came with many excessories so as 2 USB ports, a case, and a lanyard to wear around your neck. I am also happy to have an FM radio.

    Duration of ownership:5 Days

    Strengths: Small, lightweight, display with backlight, easy to use, with more great features compared to other devices that just plays mp3s. You can use it right out of the box - or blister pack if you will.:)

    Weaknesses: Wish it had a way to power using a cigarette lighter adapter to use with an fm transmitter, otherwise, AA battery works great!

    Overall Evaluation: I originally had my mind set on the 1gb Sandisk mp3 player and found this on a search on Pricegrabber and has been monitoring the price drop ever since! At $147 with no tax and shipping, it was the best bottomline value. The WOW and SRS gives it a crisp, clear and pretty loud sound! Even the FM, voice and line encoding is pretty good! And only powered by one AA battery that lasts some 40 hours was amazing (had it 5 days and I just now changed the battery)! The drag and drop feature is another great feature. Although it doesn't have an armband for jogging, maybe later on someone out there will have a great aftermarket sleeve that integrates an armband. And if they add more gigs to this little gizmo, I'll be watching out for it's next iteration! Highly recommended

    Duration of ownership:2 Days

    Strengths: Very small, lightweight, and many worthwhile features. Very easy drag'n'drop mp3 loading

    Weaknesses: None yet

    Overall Evaluation: The biggest benefit to this product is that you get 40+ hours of play time for a single AA battery so you can forget the constant charging. I own a sony mini disc walkman, a mini ipod. Each has a specific use however I bought this for gym use. Don't underestimate the battery feature. After time the lithium charge batteries lose their ability to hold and maintain a full charge (ie. palms, digital cams, etc). Sometime the good old fashioned battery is great. This player is packed w/features (many I will probably not use) but always nice to know they are there if I need them.

    Strengths: size, quailty of sound, easy to use, can even download music from cd player onto it.

    Weaknesses: None

    Overall Evaluation: After searching for many hours on the internet for an MP 3 player this was the best i found, it did all that i wanted ,a much more. The quality of sound is amazing for the size which it is. i have only had it a few hours but already I'm very impressed and would certainly recommend this. There is no worry of it skipping or being damaged as there is no hard drive, and the memory size is great, roughly 450 songs not bad.
