I have this in order to be used with my Bluetooth headphones on the cycle, and they work a treat.
Even when the keypad is locked, the A2DP controls on the headphones work.
It will also play video, but I’ve not done much more than confirm this works. Not sure how I would copy a film (say) so I could watch it on a flight.
One note of reserve; if you add a large memory Mini-SD, when it powers up, it re-scans the card, and so can be some time before it’s ready to play.
And since I’ve standardised on the Mini-USB B connector for charging, this fits the bill, and I can charge it on any of my charging rigs (like the phone, headset, hands-free, GPS, etc, etc)
Nice little tool, does just what I want. (It also works well with wired headphones

I love this MP3 player. I never had an issue with it. The Best Buy music package it offers is horrible and expensive, you lease the music and lose once to cancel. The quality is great, the one thing is I wish there were products that allowed it to dock with it. For a cheap alternative to the Ipod this is great. Cost me $40 about a year ago and if I lost it or broke it, which it is hard to do as it has fallen many times, your not out the $150 a Ipod cost. Not to bad mouth Ipod there a great product as well, just pricey.

Cant see someone getting 3 bad ones in a row, so you have to throw out the best/worse reviews if you want an accurate impression of something.
I really like this little device for music playing. Its small, easy to use once you give it a few times so you can adjust to the interface(buttons/dials) on the device. I love the bluetooth! great for working out or putting it in your pocket and wearing some BT headphones, Look Mom, no wires!
The only thing I dont like is I can not find out how to make a playlist or put one on it! I now use it on my motorcycle and want to make playlists so I dont have to search for music while riding the bike. Seems elementary so I am taking the 1 star off for that! Also, the battery life on this thing is outrageous! Several days of regular use before it needs recharging. My itouch needs it every couple of hours! And I have the itouch on settings to reduce video power, etc. I highly recommend this player, especially at the price its at now. Dont worry about firmware updates, there probably wont be any since its discontinued by the manufacturer.

This is pretty much the worst mp3 player you could buy. I got one for christmas, by the first week of january I had to get another one because it just stopped working. In march I had to get another one again because the second one blew up, literally, it blew up. And finally in april, when I got my very last one, it did the same thing. JUNK!!!!

I’m just going to make this a simple review.
+ Sounds great. Has an equalizer to set the audio to your preference.
+ Plays radio stations broadcast in RBDS. I was only able to find 2 where
I live though.
+ The video on the device looked good and played well.
+ Has an SD card slot for extra storage.
+ Long battery life. Lasts me almost 2 weeks before I have to charge it again.
+ Easy to move files from PC to MP3 player. No special software required.
Now for the bad
- Not sure how to put new videos on it. Hooked up to the computer using USB connection. Show’s the video that came on the device was an AVI file. Tried to put another AVI file on there and it would not play. I’ve tried several different file formats and none seems to work. Unless they have to be downloaded directly from Rhapsody.
