Buyer Reviews :
I am very glad that I received this mp3 player. There are alot of features that you just can't find on other players. For example the 10GB of space is huge. I explain it to my non-computer friends like this: it's almost a week worth of music. Besides that, it's got a mic and a line-in recording option. For me these are great, as I can record sermons at church straight from the sound board. Also, it can be used as a external hard drive, an option that I haven't taken advantage of yet, but plan to.
Now this thing has got a few problems that I hope are fixed in later versions of the OS (by the way it has upgradeable firmware, a plus.) One, that merely takes getting used to, is that the player won't turn on if the DC adapter, or USB is already plugged in. There are a few others, and I must admit that I've had trouble walking with it in my pant pocket. I think the jostling disrupts the hard drive after a while. (Luckily it comes with a belt clip.) And I still haven't figured out the playlist feature.
But overall, this is a great product. I take mine all over the place and keep it on shuffle and with that much music I tend not to hear the same songs too much. Of course I've only about half filled it. The backlighting and the eight lines of text on the screen do well to find songs and navigate through the options. I do enjoy the volume control on both the player and the included headphones.
If you have need to record things from a line in source, I strongly recommend this product.
