"great wi-fi device with amazing Rhapsodsy integration!"
Pros: great wifi, slick user interface, podcasting updates via wifi, flikr access, video playback.
Cons: battery drains quick when using a lot of wifi, a little big for flash player, pricey, nearly-unuseable browser.
Summary: this is one cool music player. The user interface is well thought out, great implementation, lots of options, great wifi not complex and straight forward. Good podcast library, easy MTP to Windows. Every time I check the options on a screen there a bunch of things to choose from. It syncs local music really quick via WMP 11, and downloading from Rhapsody takes about 10 seconds per song! This thing blows the Zune away in features, and is cooler than the i-pod. You can skin it with default addon themes or make your own with a website skin maker.
This thing has it all. They put a good browser on it, maybe email client and IMPROVE battery life, and this thing is going to be the 'next' big thing!
No buyer's remorse. I stream no-commercial channels all day long when not playing my own music. If I hear a song streaming and I like it, I simply select 'keep this song'and it downloads in seconds.
Very thoughtful & fresh approach to the i-pod one size fits all model. Very nice, I like it.
