General Comments
I saw the Packard Bell Audiodream 512 on offer for 1/2 price. Loved the neat stylish silver design so couldn't resist it!

This was the first MP3 player I've bought - seemed easy to put the music on and holds a good amount of music.



After a few weeks the problems began - the machine seemed to have a serious breakdown! It wouldn't turn on even with the battery charged. Seemed to freeze. Took it back to a local Dixons who said they had had a lot back and that I could swap it for a new one or a different type. As I had not got the box I said I'd go back the next day. Typically it worked fine then so have kept it for the moment but seriously wondering if I should return it and get a different make?

The look of the player is so cute and cool - so small! Its ideal for me but just worried it will freeze again and not ever work again? Will see how it goes over the next month. If I get any problems it will need to go back. Shame as I really like it!
