OK...... Personal casette player..... sooo 90's
Personal CD Player........ how big!!
iPod... Mug me!
Matsunich MP3 Player... Suits you sir.
I opted for the 512Mb unit, and very nice it is to. I listen to a lot of talking books being optically challenged, and I got sick of carrying four or five cases of CD's every where. I popped into PC World and there it was. Genius. Small, compact. It doesnt scream MUG Me and gives suprisingly good quality sound for such a cheap little unit.
I would recommend purchasing a better set of headphones as the ones supplied simply do not do this diminutive little unit the justice it deserves.
The blue backlight is amazing and makes the display easy to see, even for me.
Don't get me wrong now, its not the badger's nadgers, the dog's danglies or the bee's knees of MP3 players, but at this money(£34.99) it beats many other lower specced but higher priced units.
Buy one tomorrow and tell me I'm wrong if you honestly can.
You won't regret it.
