Good: everything (almost)
Bad: Zappin
Comment: i disagree with the people saying its a bad fit, the fit is brilliant, i work at McDonalds and use the player every night at work which keeps me constantly moving, climbing shelves washing up, scrubbing floors and polishing stainless steal among other things and never once has it fallen out, it doesnt mould to your own head after time as my brothers are very fond of stealing it, and wandering around the house with it on, and it doesnt fall out, the sound on it is amazing and nothing i put on it has ever been distorted, in any way shape or form. the colours are great with such a range available, although i brought a lime green player some colour has been lost, but i believe its due to the fact that the only time it is not in use is when it is charging and ive had it quite a while now, its brilliant because i can play it through the speaker in my can using the usb connection in my stereo, which means i can play lots of songs without either changing the CD or creating various mix CD's there is one function that i was surprised and confused about because i accidentally turned this function on, is the hearing saver function or what ever it is which when turned on doesn't allow you to play music loud enough to damage the ear drums, i thought it was a brilliant idea although i thought it was broke for 3 weeks till i read the information properly lol, the zappin function isnt too much of a bother as ive never seen the need to use it, but one thing that annoys me is the fact you can't get external speakers for it as its great for songs brill sound sturdy and can be put in a pocket or simply left around your neck or over your ears when not in use its an amazing little mp3 player and i maintain its the best ive ever had.

Good: The Sounds
Bad: The fit - really badly designed, unwearable if you're moving about
Comment: I was really excited about the prospect of a wireless mp3 to wear for running/ cycling/ gym use. I was then REALLY disappointed when I got this one and tried to use it. Don't get me wrong - the sound is great. But the concept for wearing it just doesn't work. The headphones flap around annoyingly when you try and walk/ run/ cycle. Unless you want this for just sitting down, I really wouldn't buy it.

Good: Almost everything
Bad: Memory size:price
Comment: (This is my review, Its just i didn't register before comenting last time)
Excellent product with only 1 problem, the Memory size:Price ratio.
For £42 I would like to have more than 2GB of memory.
However I love the small, lightweight, one component design. No more week long missions of untangling headphone wires. I also adore the hours of usage from 5 mins of charging, Genius!
And the Zappin funtion is awesome!
It has major potential to be the best mp3 player i've owned, if only it had more space!

Good: music quality
Bad: SIMPLY NO GOOD FOR ANYONE EXERCISING PROPERLY
Comment: What really is the point of designing an mp3 player which would have all the qualities of being great for the gym/running etc if it is NOT SWEATPROOF!!!!!!!
Despite all the qualities if it doesn`t last one session because they fail when sweat [effectively water] gets in then why bother. A waste of time and money.
