But why stop here, you can take it a step further. Imagine no buttons at all! When you connect your headphones the new ipod powers on and starts to play automaticly

A. I am satisfied (so far) ,only thing that I have been missing is a remote control. Also the buttons could work a little better (might be my unit only though). The scroll wheel was a little weird at the beginning but once I got used to it, it's not a problem anymore. B. Yes you can transfer...

Mini Ipod: 1. Ugly.....well it just looks cheap, no style like previous models had. 2. Short battery life. 3. Only little bit smaller than 3rd gen and 1:10 capacity.

10.000-25.000 here. I don't know exact numbers because they are spread over 20cdr's, 10dvdr's and rest of them in my hd. (OFF TOPIC AHEAD) Sometimes I agree with that "mp3's suck" complaint. This is when I download music from the net. I can't understand why is converting mp3's so hard...

Allthough prices are higher in here (Finland), there are rules that electoronic devices such as mp3-players MUST have 1 year warranty. So my zen is protected for at least 10 more months.

I have seen a chart where are following values. Max time allowed per day in 85dB enviroment 8hours Max time allowed per day in 88dB enviroment 4hours ... ... Max time allowed per day in 109dB enviroment 1,5 minutes So every 3dB increase in volume cuts listening time by 2. The problem...

Thanks for the link, it seems like the volume button is a big problem with new Zen:s. Sometimes when i push "back" button it increases my volume Well this unit goes back to creative....

I just got my zen xtra 60gb, everything was fine until I tried to adjust the volume. It seems that the volume switch is broken I assume that volume switch is supposed to click in each direction. My unit only clicks when I press -volume, if I press +volume there is no click. The volume goes both...

Nice review. I have ordered a one (xtra 60gb) and I'm waiting for it to arrive today, can't wait to get my hands on it because it's my first hd-mp3 player

Hmm.... I noticed that one shop is selling 60gb Zen, is that automaticly xtra or is regular nx available in 60gb also?

Zen Nx is just what I have been waiting for because of its price and it still has 30gb capacity. I just ordered Zen Nx two days ago but now I am thinking about canceling that order and waiting for the Zen NX Xtra. I don't know though when it will be available here (Finland) but it would be a...

Impressive but the price is too much for me. If there were a 10gb model around 300€ the i would be interested. That slicky sounds interesting too.

Quote: Originally posted by Lisa I fill my iRiver flash player (128 MB) in 5 min. And I can burn a CD hooked up to USB1.0 in 20 min. 700MB/20=35 So 35MB per min. ~ 0,58 MB per sec. 10MB/0,58 =17,2 So 17,2 sec to load a 10MB mp3. To sum it all up, USB speed is almost 3x faster...

Quote: Originally posted by rblanco10 Really, how slow? How long does it take to transfer a 10meg mp3? Thanks! I don't remember the exact speed of usb 1.0 but i think that it is around 1.5Kbit's /second so to transfer one 10 meg song it would take about 50 seconds to transfer...

I was talking about battery life on nex and i think that with good 2000mah batterys you can get to that 12hours. Of course if you use not rechargable batterys you can go to 15hours. You just plug your Nex IIe in to usb of your computer and it shows as an "hard-drive" in your explorer. You can...

Allthough i don't have NexIIe anymore, I can recommend this player. It has its flaws but it is a good choice if you want a cheap player. I think that there are better players on the market but you have to pay more to get them. I can not compare sound quality of NexII and Rio players but i...

Ok my first battery test just finished and the Oscar goes to..... I used 1600mAh rechargeable batterys, and the backlight was disabled. I can't tell you the exact running time but i would estimate it is 9-11 hours . That is not a good result but I think that you could get better result with...

Well i don't look at the display allways, but when im listening to soundtrack/symphonic music, you really can not tell at the start of the song what is it. And you can brag to your friends with a backlit player

There are two things that are a bit of a minus for diva. 1.Lcd screen is pretty small 2. Lcd isn't backlit. 3. There isn't a retailer in Finland for Diva (currently running my NexIIe battery test, expect results soon...)
