Good Points: Ease of use, sound quality.
Bad Points: Unreliable, Bad customer service.
General comments: Purchased the e.Digital MXP100 portable mp3 player for my sons birthday, tracks started skipping around the 3 month mark. Impossible to get a response from Customer service then after about 10 mails and 4 months. They informed that it would cost $45 plus postage and packing to fix, still waiting 2 months later for a reply to the question "what about the UK?"

Nice value, I got 340 mb microdrive MXP100 for $150. The rechargeable battery seems to last a long time. It's sturdily made, but seems not quite professional standard such as the rubber piece that goes over the memory slot and usb connection and the buttons aren't that cool. The one thing the MXP doesn't have that my Rio500 had was a bookmarks, and a fast forward that progressively went faster. On the MXP you can FF at say 30 seconds of song in maybe 10 seconds, so if you're listening to an ...

The two major complaints I've seen in other review of this unit - the price and the slow transfer speed - are now largely things of the past.
This was the cheapest 256MB player (1 CF card included) I could find in the UK: £120. incl from www.advancedmp3players.co.uk.
The latest firmware allows the CF or micrdodrives to be read in other readers, so it's no longer necessary to use either the included software or even the cable for anything other than firmware updates. I havea USB2 CF read ...

I have had two of these units fail within one year. The first was within first two months of purchase. The replacement failed within three months. e.Digital would not provide a replacement for the second unit. Maybe these products were rushed to market without being tested enough. The company should support thier products better. This is a expensive higher-end consumer electronic product. The buyer should expect that it will perform as advertised and not fail within a couple month. Stick with a ...

My MXP-100 has been a standout digital music player. Frequent firmware and software upgrades from e.Digital (www.edig.com) have made the product even easier to use. The VoiceNav, while effective, is not something I use very often - I prefer to manually scroll through my songs. I use my 1G Microdrive with my digital camera as well - it stores all my photos and music concurrently. I highly recommend the MXP-100.

The mxp100 portable MP3 player from eDigital has great voice recognition to move from one track to another instantly. Sound quality is right on top. This mp3 player will be the one to watch!

You have to hand it to e.Digital, they did something with the mxp100 portable MP3 player no one else can do for a small digital music player.
They made it so it can be upgraded later for new music codecs.
They made it so it can support the IBM MicroDrive and still have a long battery life (I got 10 hours). The MicroDrive can give you hundreds of songs (1 Gig).
And they put in a voice call up feature to find songs.
It's a JukeBox with the size of a Flash player.
Since it is unlike anything e ...

This e.digital mxp100 is the only mp3 player that you can really put hours of music on and run with it. However the proprietary software is just foolish. You have this wonderful 1gig microdrive and instead of removing it and using it with an adapter to transfer files, you have to load it one song at a time through this idiot program that won't let you reorder the songs and has a really slow transfer rate.
