Advantages: Slim and Slick Disadvantages: size of earphone jack
even looking at the manual. However within a few minutes it became pretty easy. I normally store 5 albums on my ipocket as well as a few videos that I always keep on it.
--Music / Video quality--
The player has a Stereo output mode with a crisp sound and a good range of volume. The screen is a bit too small to view videos on in a good quality however is a great idea and is worth having.
