MATSUI 120 MR
I've got two of these (I mis-placed my first one which I found again but after I'd bought a replacement). I've used both regularly for a couple of years, often while out running and I've never had any problems with them.
While the Matsui isn't as stylist as an ipod or have as many facilities, it does allow the user to skip through songs or scroll down a list to find a particular album or song.
If you're not happy with the sound it'll be due to the EQ setting not being right for the type of music being listened to OR it'll be the rather average headphones supplied so just buy a better pair. As a "digital to analogue converter" though (which is basically all a mp3 player is in it's simplest form), this player does the job very well.
For me it's an advantage that it runs on a single AAA battery, rather than having to keep a charger to hand, and with a descent brand of battery I get about 8-10 hours of use out of it. Something else that's helpful for me is that the player comes complete with a USB connector to plug straight into the PC.
If people have problems with loading music onto these mp3 players I wonder if it's simply that it's not been correctly formatted first. I use Windows media player in sync mode on my Vista laptop and it never fails. To format, what I do is click on "Computer" and right click on the Matsui icon and go to "Format..." Then I select "Fat (Default)" in the File system drop down box and I tick "Quick Format" and then "Start."
Hope this helps someone.
