    CNET Review

    November 10, 2002

    The Good: USB and FireWire connections; 40GB capacity; improved interface; digital and analog recording to WAV or MP3; excellent audio quality, sound processing; syncs both ways with a PC; rechargeable battery can be replaced.

    The Bad: Somewhat bulky; no protective case included.

    The Bottom Line: This large MP3 player offers a slew of connectivity, recording, and sound options.
