I LOVE THE ZUNE! THE IPOD DOES NOT COMPARE AT ALL TO THIS!

Advantages: Big screen, customisable, fun games, easy use and navigation
Disadvantages: The headphones that come with the box are a bit plastic-y

When i first purchased my zune, which was around 100 pound less than i would have had to pay for an ipod, i was a bit shocked by the size of it. After having this music player for over 2 years, i still feel it has been my favourite purchase ever. The sheer robustness of this player amazes me! i have dropped this off my lap many times to find it still doesn't have a single scratch on it, now i'm not saying it's invincible, but its very durable and ...
...smudge free, the plastic casing is like magic :) In my opinon the interface on these players are a dream! and highly customisable, you can have your own wallpaper etc, screen is verrrrry big! big enough to enjoy a movie in bed with i would say. With 30gb at your bay, you have a hell of a lot of room to store your music, videos, and podcasts - on the subject of podcasts and music, the Zune Marketplace that you sign up with when you get your zune is ...

Toshiba F20 - Very Hard To 'GigaBEAT'

Advantages: User friendly, audio & visual quality, good size hard drive
Disadvantages: Touch pad is a little tricky to get used to at first

...retailers, I finally bought the Toshiba Gigabeat F20. Large screen, great visual quality, excellent sound, easy to use - and most importantly.........Good size hard drive space. After getting to grips with the software and using the 'gigabeat room' a couple of times, I found it quite user friendly, and in no time at all, I was scanning my own album covers to use when ripping. Navigating using the touch pad took a little getting used to, but other ...
...all. (Must also add that the 'hot keys' on the docking station are very convenient - starting the software at the touch of a button and ripping an entire album in under 5 minutes - Excellent) The graphic equalizer feature is also very good, with many already pre-set and the chance of user difining your own, to save. The drop down menu's are smooth, and easy to use, showing off the 320 x 240 LCD colour screen to it's full potential. The visual quality ...

Review of Toshiba gigabeat MEG-F20 20 GB

Toshiba G40 delivers

Advantages: Versatility with updated firmware from Toshiba
Disadvantages: Clunky navigation, distortion of certain equalizer settings

...Fortunately, the seller had contacted Toshiba to acquire an "Update Disc Gigabeat 'MEGF' Series Ver. 3" (recommended for all users!), included with the unit, which may have spared me much headache in resolving the "Firmware" issues I've read much about this unit. It was a pain getting the unit to load up on my computer (it couldn't with my desktop, but fortunately did with my Sony FXA 32 laptop), I thought the installation of RockBox software might ...
...the navigating is clunky, but considering the wasted time spent with the iPod, am pleased that my major objectives were met with the Toshiba F40. I may try to install RockBox eventually, if it's as it's cracked up to be, but for now, am satisfied with this unit as is. ...

Review of Toshiba gigabeat MEG-F40 40 GB

The best thing i ever bought

Advantages: Practical,fast charging, very entertaining, great value for money
Disadvantages: No mains charger, very basic instruction manual, the user must have a computer to use it

An absolutely outstanding product. It does everything but computer does but with no loading up. Many entertaining games that kept even a serious gamer like myself amused, i wont leave home without it now. Of course there is the usual Ipod features like music and videos, but this time with many differant ways to organise and listen to them. I must admit it did seem strange at first that such a complex product was sold without a mains charger and a ...
...USB cable to be used for charging, and its pretty easy to get used to, although there is an instrution manual availible online. The instruction manual being around 170 pages long, so i can understand why it wasnt included, the size of the box it came in was tiny however, not much bigger than the product. I do find it useful for when im around town, were i can get wi-fi access at Mcdonalds, Starbucks, Witherspoons...ect. Its a great gift for anyone ...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

Basic but good mp3 player.

Advantages: Value for money
Disadvantages: Basic functionality

I had this mp3 player for a couple of years and I grew to really like it. Please note that newer more fancy mp3 players are available now, although I bought mine a few years back. The player is reliable and never broke down. It is easy to use and you don't need to ever read the instruction manual. The display screen is small, but you can still see whatever you need to see. When looking at lists of songs you can see 3 songs displayed on screen ...
...great. I bought better ones for around 10 pounds seperately. The sound quality is good, and so is the FM radio. You can't watch videos on this, its only for music, and there is no connectivity to the internet either. You can't read books on this, nor are there any games. It's not a telephone. This is not the best player you can buy! However as a value for money proposition it worked for me. ...
