1. Overall, great player with a very large display. The firmware needs some work. Audiobooks show up in the music list so shuffled playback selects random chapters for your listening pleasure. And a game or two wouldn’t hurt. In my humble opinion this is the best player for the money.

2. I have had this MP3 player for 3 months and I love it. It is extremely user friendly. I can easily import anything I want in seconds. No errors , no fighting. I also have an ipod touch that is an uphill battle the way. I love this thing.

1. No matter how convenient it is to have a portable music player, there are times when you want to be able to listen to music “normally.” The Travelsound Zen V is the way to do so with the Creative Zen V and Zen V Plus players. It’s very small, attractive, easy to hook up, and simple to operate. (You may have to update the firmware on your player, but the download is free on Creative’s website, and the process takes just a few minutes.) There are lots of nice features. It runs on either 4 AA batteries or an included AC adapter. There’s a USB input, an auxiliary line-in input, and a subwoofer output on the back. The manual is pretty minimal, but it covers the basic operation. The remote control is surprisingly convenient, but it is very small, and there’s no on-board storage pocket or clip for it. Of course, the most important aspect of any speaker system is the sound quality. The Travelsound Sen V is outstanding! It’s amazing to hear the crisp sound from such a tiny system fill up a room. Obviously, you don’t get booming bass from such small speakers, but the bass is very good nonetheless.

2. After researching and finding good reviews for the Creative Zen V plus (at the time I bought it an iPod with similar features and size cost twice as much) I bought one and have loved it. A portable MP3 player is great if you’re in a position where it’s convenient to wear earplugs/phones, but the Travelsound makes the Zen V great pretty much all the time and everywhere. The sound from this little system is fantastic for 4W. You’re not going to rattle the windows at those decibels, but if you need your music that loud you’ve already suffered hearing damage! The Travelsound makes me able to carry our music on cookouts, tailgating, to the pool. I play it in my office and I bring it with me when I do surgery in the O.R. (At my facility a “permanent” stereo set up in the OR will be quickly stolen - the Travelsound with my handy little Zen makes me able to set up good sound, then carry it with me for safekeeping.)

Customer feedback:

1. I was lucky enough to hear that this phone had been released just days after I had bought the 8525 to replace a previous broken phone. There seemed to be some confusion with the AT&T sales people, since currently with rebates it sells for less than the 8525 and some internal memo seems to have them telling customers that a different update to the 8525 is still coming. Make no mistake, this is the upgrade for the 8525 and it’s a beauty! The device itself is really pleasing to look at. The front is actually considerably darker to the eye than the photos on this page, more like a dark grey than silver, which I think is quite nice looking (see the photo I uploaded). The back does show fingerprints a bit, but it has a nice feel to it and is easy to gripe. The back however is rather challenging to get off.

Overall, this is a great phone, and quite frankly, an even better computer. I have installed a 2 GB mini-SD card. It doesn’t have an earphone jack or stereo speakers but with the ability to have up to 6 Bluetooth pairings, you probably don’t need them.

The redesigned Sony Mylo COM-2 (which stands for “my life online”) enables you to stay in touch with all your IM and e-mail contacts without having to lug around a laptop. While still curvy along the sides for a comfortable feel in the palms of your hand, the top and bottom of the Mylo COM-2 have been given a sleeker straight edge. Other improvements include a larger 3.5-inch LCD (800 x 480-pixel resolution), a bump in Wi-Fi speed to 802.11g (in addition to 802.11b), and a built-in 1.3-megapixel camera. Other features include an easy-to-operate back-lit, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, an embedded microphone and speaker, multi-format digital audio player, and integrated Skype VoiP capabilities.
The Mylo COM-2 comes with several pre-installed widgets that range from a Google search widget and the Facebook Notifier (tracking activity on your Facebook page) to more advanced apps like the My Contacts widget, which works as a consolidated buddy list for all the IM applications on the Mylo. In addition to the preinstalled widgets, you’ll be able to download new widgets from the Mylo web site as well as register as a developer if you want to build your own widgets.

Customer feedback:

1. I use the sony mylo 2 to make skype calls and read and respond to emails also i use it to watch youtube videos.The skype application works great very good call quality and if your listening to music or surfing the web and a call comes in a skype screen comes up and you can answer the call.Email function is great and you can add photo attachements and view photo attachments.Web surfing is really fast but you have to turn off the power save feature(tools then network settings then click on advanced and uncheck the box that says power save) and if you do that the youtube videos are smooth and the surfing might be faster.
2. This product is actually really good. I got one for myself( white one) and another one for my fiance ( black one). They look very nice and everything else works great.

Customer feedback:

1. I’ve owned the BeoSound 2 since 2002, and I’ve never been disappointed. As you can see, B&O has taken a different approach with the design, which should come as no surprise to those who have enjoyed the company’s minimalist approach to its audio components in the past.
There are just seven buttons, and their functions are very easy to learn. Holding some of the buttons simultaneously provides other functions, such as locking the device, setting it to shuffle and have it rescan the card. Those are explained in the manual.
2. The music is flawless. The earphones are very comfortable too. There’s nothing like listening to your favourite song on a Beosound 2, its priceless. You cant measure the expression you get out of it. Well i read a lot of reviews where people said the price is too high. C’mon you gotta hear it first and you dont expect to get a Ferrari for the price of Honda, do you?
Anyways i am highly satisfied with this product and i just wanted to say that if you are the kind of person who puts design, quality and taste before price, you might wanna try this out.

For those who seek the ultimate sound quality while listening to digital music files, BeoSound 6 will exceed your highest expectations.

Customer feedback:

The A3 can play everything the Archos 605 can plus way more extra formats. It supports MKV which no other player supports (I’m throwing that out since a lot of my videos are in MKV) The screen is huge for viewing videos and the audio can be configured. Battery life is good for video (estimated 7 hours) but audio is not so great (9 hours) though I have a feeling you can get more out of it if you lowered the brightness of the LCD screen and the power saver mode to 10 sec. One key factor is it can play HD resolution (720p only) which no other player can do.

Customer feedback:

1. FLAC! My entire music library is in FLAC, where I can manage, so I’m used to the beauty and intricacy of lossless audio on my computer and now I can FINALLY have it in my portable media player.
* The generous 60 gig HD can hold almost 100 FLAC encoded albums or many hours of high-quality video.
* The display on this thing is mind-blowing; the vividness and clarity are comparable to a high-end laptop screen. Its seriously like holding a photo in your hands.
*The sound! Besides the fact that the many high-quality codecs supported will always trump mp3 for sound quality, the A3 has very few EQ settings (I think 5 or so) and what the EQ presets lack in quantity, they more than make up for in quality. The user-editable EQ is the best I’ve seen in any audio player
2. The sound quality is exceptional. I own two other mp3 players - an IRiver, which has extremely poor sound quality, and a Cowon F2 which has very good sound quality, but not as good as the A3’s. The sound enhancement features of the A3 work very well. Even when you turn the volume up loud there’s no distortion. (With the F2, too much bass will cause major distortion at medium to high volume.)
