General Comments

I have owned a few MP3 players, but the OraCom ORC200 is by far the best. The player and supplied software are crammed with features, but it is still really easy to use.

The player is well designed, and the unique feature of being able to pull the player apart into two revealing a USB plug is fanatstic. No need to carry cables and software around with you, just plug it into any computer and start sharing files.

The AAA battery lasts for ages (at least 8hrs) but it is a bit fiddly to change because the unit is so small. But despite its miniture proportions it is incredably well built. You can even customise features such as the scroll speed of the Song Name text, and backlight duration.

The software supplied even allows you to make and customise logos to be displayed on the LCD screen, or convert your photos into black and white logos.

Overall, I love it. Easy to use, packed with features, and at £79.99 it is good value.
