CNET Review
The Good: Best-of-breed design and interface; excellent playlist features; clean, configurable sound; smooth syncing with both Windows PCs and Macs via iTunes; organizes contacts; includes games; functions as an external drive; optional voice-recording and photo-wallet accessories.
The Bad: No FM or line-in recording; voice recording enabled with accessory; battery life compromised somewhat by small size; battery not user-replaceable.
The Bottom Line: We love almost everything about this beautifully designed player, but the battery life could be longer.
