Good Points

Anti-skip feature is excellent.
Robust and sturdy.
Includes a remote.
Very easy to use.
Plays both ordinary CDs and MP3 CDs.


Bad Points

Truncates (shortens) long track names in the display.
Not as slim-line or light as some players.
Included headphones are dreadful.


General Comments

I've had this player for over a year, and it has always served me well. I use it when I'm walking, and the anti-skip feature coupled with the robust case (it's been dropped, scratched, sat on and juggled and it still works fine!) has performed excellently.
he battery life is good too, lasting around 10-12 hours depending on use, but diminishes if anti-skip is enabled. The only real downside to this player is the included headphones, which are a painful, inconvenient behind-the-neck model.
The included software, while enabling easy CD ripping, makes constant demands for $30 to upgrade to the full version. Rather irritating, but ignorable, and functionality is retained (you can still rip, even without the "Deluxe" version).
Overall, this is a great MP3 CD player. Practically skip-proof and easy to use, it makes up for the slight bulkiness and rubbish included heaphones. The included remote is compatible with any headphones (of course) so these are easily replaceable.
