Review rated by 10 Ciao members on average: helpful

I had wanted to get an mp3 player for some time, but I could never decide on the right one. Most were either too chunky or had very limited memory and all were expensive.

Then I saw an advert for the Memory Clip on Sony's website and I knew I had to have it. At 64Mb, the capacity is still not great but this is made up for many times over by it's sheer convenience. The MC is little bigger than a pen (maybe about the size of a cigar) and fits easily in an inside pocket. It will play for a surprisingly long time from a single AA battery and was supplied with easy to use software for filing and transfering mp3s.

To me, this is exactly what an mp3 player could be. The MC is not cheap, but is worth every penny (or rather cent as it is not on sale in the UK).

Thanks for the comments, here are a few more details:

The software supplied does not require any wonderful modern computer -- it is running very happily on my PII 333Mhz. Obviously the main problem if you have a lot of mp3s will quickly become hard disk space.

I obtained my MC from pcseller.com and it cost me $344 including delivery to the UK. Unfortunately looking at their website it now says "This product has been discontinued."

Hi & welcome to Ciao. I can't add any advice for you because it's already been given. The only thing I can say is to enjoy writing your opinions as it makes the writing a lot easier! Regards......Paddy (Tom)

Welcome! Not everyone knows about this technology, so it's as well to say what else you need to get it to work. For example, given the software you mention, will you only be able to use this if you have a very hi-spec up-to-date PC or what?

For a product only available abroad, you need to say exactly where you got it, and how much it cost. There's no point recommending a product if no-one can find it! Nothing wrong with the opinion itself, though.
