We like:
Sound quality; price; simple operation; easy line-in recording; excellent internal microphone
We don't like:
Screen quality; video performance; navigation pad is unresponsive at times; microSD contents not imported into main library
You might also need:
Better earphones; 3.5mm-to-3.5mm audio cable
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The iRiver E100 is a nice player with excellent sound quality and a good price. We feel it's still inferior to Creative's Zen or Apple's iPod nano in terms of screen quality, but its painfully simple operation makes it a good choice for MP3 newbies or Apple and Creative haters
