"Best combination of features and price"
Pros: More features for less money than an ipod
Cons: Poor FM reception when using bluetooth
Summary: I can't believe this device doesn't get more love from cnet. This device has a nice set of features for an 8gb mp3 player and cost less than the 8GB ipod. This device has expandable memory (SD card), stereo bluetooth, a F.M. tuner, 2 headphone jacks, and a replaceable battery. Want to share music with your friends? No adapters needed here. Two people can simply plug in their headphones while a third can listen via stereo bluetooth. Bluetooth volume can be controlled independent of the plugged in headphones. Sound quality over my Motorola S9 stereo bluetooth headphones exceeds most earbuds that I have.
The biggest complaint I have about this device is the lack of FM reception when using bluetooth headphones. Only way to fix this is to plug in a set of earbuds to act as an antenna. Video playback could be smoother, but i will have to re-encode my music videos before i can pass final judgment.
Overall this is an excellent music player that cannot be beat for anywhere near the price.

The radio needs a wired headset to function as an antenna. Bluetooth doesn't provide the functionality... therefore, the con listed does not apply!
