| 448354 | 2006-06-17 04:31:00 | I have just come back from window-shopping at The Warehouse. The mp3 player has all the features that bob has described, except that it is USB 2.0 compatible. This mp3 player is perfectly all right for average home users, but the downfall is that it runs on AAA batteries, which is a no-no for me. :groan: I didn't buy it at the end, despite its popularity (there was only one left when I went there). Cheers :) USB 2.0 compatible, but will run at usb 2.0 speed or is it just backwards compatible |

| 448355 | 2006-07-08 11:38:00 | I bought the mp3 player last Thursday at The Warehouse after some hesitations. One of the limitations is that the range of sound volume that you can control is pretty limited. This is said so because even when the volume is set to the minimum, the song tracks can still blast through the earphones at a rather deafening tone. Besides this, the button that is responsible for the play / pause / stop and power is a bit flimsy. Incidentally, the mp3 player has ultimately won my heart due to its reasonable size as well as expandable memory feature. However, the compromise that comes along with its miniature size is the need for AAA battery (as mentioned earlier), which I had bought rechargeable ones from DSE for $10 (500 mAh). Overall, this mp3 player suits me pretty well. Cheers :) |
