I admit, I am a media junkie, I enjoy movie
clips, sound files, music, pictures, etc. I found this to be the
ultimate piece of hardware to have without having to lug around a
laptop.
So many features for this little gem, this puts most of your Mp3
players to shame. You can view movies (.avi, .flv, DivX, etc), play
your .mp3 files, drop and run with Shockwave files (.swf), .jpg
pictures... and thats just right out of the gate. You also can freely
move files to and from this without the use of third party bloatware
such as iTunes, etc. You can drag and drop your files to and from the
device with ease.
Oh and there is the WiFi, you can access, or stream your files from
shared folders on your network. Or if you prefer, you can pick up the
Opera browser plugin for an additional amount of
money.
And for those who have DRM protected media, this will support it. (I for one am against purchasing media that is DRM protected).
The audio on this unit is very impressive, there is an equalizer
with preset and also the option for custom setting (which is a bonus).
So you get to set the sound the way you want instead of Joe Schmoe's
way from the factory.
The only con I found thus far is there was no place to store the stylus (plastic pen to use for the touch screen).
And it does not like spaces in the file name when you are trying to
stream media from the network (simply rename the file without spaces
and it corrects this problem).
Otherwise, I HIGHLY recommend this product, be it the 4 GB or the
30 GB model for all those who want to take their media with them.
