was a gift
I gave it to my nephew. He enjoys it. The price was ok and it arrived quickly which I appreciated.

Best money I ever spent
First of all, you'll notice that all the other reviews are complaints about how the item runs.
If you stop and think of it as an MP3 player and not as an IPOD clone then you would realize how awesome it is.
no, out of the box it is not easy to use, but once you understand it. YOU'LL LOVE IT! i bought this item for my...accident prone husband.
I bought this 2 years ago and it is still working. It has survived being chewed on by a pitbull, peed on by a cat, countless cans of soda, a trip through both the washer & dryer, and it was even LOST under the dryer because it'd been used as a cat toy.
It still works.
This MP3 player i awesome.

Buyer BEWARE!!!
Ok, i bought this mp3 player for my little brother for christmas, i was excited because it arrived earlier then expected, BUT with a million problems. First, the operation manual, if thats what you want to call it, is one sheet of paper stating the on/off volume and play buttons. I plugged it in, charged it for a day and a half and STILL it will not turn on unless plugged into a computer. Also, i have put some things on it like music and a movie, but it will not show up at all. Also, the ad says 2GB but i only got 1GB. THEE WORST Mp3 PLAYER EVER!!! BUYER BEWARE!

This review is about the product and why you should not purchase it
I have bought this version, despite all the negative feedback. The positive feedback was there, even though there was alot more negative. It looked decent in the pictures and when I got it, it was just as promising. It really is a cute little iPod clone. Despite the looks it is made of cheap, CHEAP plastic. Of course, the headphones were low grade but they all are when buying a mp3 player. When it came to using this product it was okay, even though the directions are butchered english. They make so little sense, I found it funny. When I got everything onto my computer I was surprised to find this product comes with alot of other programs, like a free demo avi converter, which was useful until the demo ran out. This made me think...how much of these programs make up the cost of what I paid for this product? When it all comes down to it I believe the majority of the cost is in the extra programs not the player itself. When I finally got music onto the player it worked very well, for two weeks. Then the headphones burnt out, big surprise. I used my headphones from my cellphone because they were the only ones which would fit the smaller jack. It annihilated them, the player demolished the headphones in two days. The player died shortly after. The reason for the player dieing in my opinion was a mixture of cheap electronics and the wall adapter charger. This player is so cheaply made that it's pretty fragile. The wall adapter it came with also burnt out another player a couple weeks later, which brought me to beleive it could have been the culprit for this one too, but it worked awhile after using it so there were manty other factors in it too. My advice is still to throw that thing in the trash as soon as you get it, if you are really determined to buy this product. There is a reason for the piles and piles of one star ratings, and that is because this player it not worth what you pay for. If you want a reliable, cost efficient player, go with a sansa clip, you will be significantly happier with it compared to this player. Im writing this hoping that many will read this and not put there optimism in this player, because it's quite a letdown. This player should not even be on amazon because it's bringing more of a negative reputation than postive. I love amazon.com but it is letting their customers waste so much money on this product. Keep looking, this player is not what you want.

?
Is there any more of a blatent rip off of an IPOD then this....plus it's a tech. disaster.
