"A beauty, but quiet"
What I like:
The fact that it's not a flippin' iPod
What I don't like:
It's a wee bit quiet
Review:
No complaints. I love it - even the software hassles don't bother me BUT it needs a bit more oomph in the volume department. I'm not one for annoyingly loud commuter nuisance - but it seems far too quiet for my liking.

Archos 5 Internet Tablet
Has an impressive range of features, but its unresponsive touchscreen is annoying
Philips GoGear Muse
Good format support and a slick design can't make up for a poor screen and laborious user interface
