Cyclone, thanks for letting me know. I was thinking my unit was faulty... sumguy, yer the photos don't really do it much justice. Initially I thought it was ugly also, but It's nice in person. The size is supposed to be slightly smaller than the HD1 and HD3, but only by a millimeter or...

Well I finally received it from Japan, and so far I'm very pleased. I have only been using the unit for a week now, but I thought I might aswell post a 'mini review' while I have the time. Keep in mind this is my first review on anything, so don't expect too much! Also, a lot of this is based on...

Sounds good... I've bought one of these too, in black. I should get it on Monday. I upgraded from an iPod mini, mainly for the sound quality reason. My problem with the iPod was the lack of bass, and the boring and somewhat flat sound. How does this compare to the Sony? I like the sound of...

Well for a micro-hdd player I'd reccomend the Olympus m:robe M100. It is an excellent little player, and very cool looking. Sound quality is great, UI is fairly easy, and build quality is top notch too. The only fault that I found with the player was the low volume, however this is easily fixed...

So whats the update Catastrophe? Have you finally got it working? Is it because its Japanese domestic unit? I'm a little concerned because I have a HD5 on its way from Japan right now. Hope I don't have any problems!

I finally got around to buying a HD5 on ebay. I chose the black one... I should get it by the end of this week. I'll post some pics if nobody gets one before me. I just hope it will work on English Windows XP.

i've made up my mind i want this player! i just sold my ipod mini to get it... i will really appreciate the more punchy bass and 20gb. so does anybody have an idea when this will be released here in aus? or even other countries for that matter. will they have an international release all at...

Yeh but I hate iRiver... They are big, ugly and hard to use. The sound quality and EQ are really good though... shame the iPod can't incooperate this. When do u guys predict a new HD player release from Sony?

Hey, I am out to replace my iPod mini for somethin with a bit more bass and coloured sound. I was about to buy a HD1 (with mp3 upgrade) or a HD3, but I don't know if this would be a good move or not. I know Sony are bringing out new flash players and MD players, but do you think a HD player...

Man I hope they pull out a HD4 soon. I need to upgrade from this iPod mini, I love everything about it but the lack of bass and EQ. Come on Sony!!

I just downloaded the new sonicstage. Big improvement over the old one, the album/source problem really bothered me. Much better now. I will go out and buy the HD1 (with mp3 upgrade) even sooner now. I do have a question though, the annoying groups thing has been fixed on actual sonicstage...

I did actually consider the iAudio at some stage, but the lack of screen on the main unit bothers me... I never use remotes, I feel they get in the way. Everything else about it would be perfect. Anything else you could reccomend? So how loud is the HD1 compared to MD? Do you think Sony...

Hey all, I own an iPod mini, I've had it for about 5 months now. I upgraded from a Sony NetMD. I really liked the sound from the sony, colourful and bassy, as apposed to the iPods rather 'flat' sound with minimal bass. I'm starting to miss the Sony sound, after listening to my mates NetMD...

Hey Mavis! Thanks for the review... even though a slightly negative one, those pictures alone make me want to buy one for myself! I wanna upgrade from an iPod mini, coz I miss the Sony sound (I used to own a minidisc N910). I remember being disappointed with the iPods sound at first, but I...

I don't believe it will have a colour screen which can display pictures, etc... an iPod like that wouldnt sell very well with the general public. Plus, it wouldn't be an iPod. iPod is a stylish, easy to use music player, thats all, and Apple knows it. They wouldnt stuff it up with a colour...

The comparison between these two players hasn't been discussed. They are both very alike... they use the same hard drive. I can't decide wether to keep my iPod Mini or the MuVo2. The MuVo has a 14 hour battery life, and the battery is user replacable. The iPods battery isnt great and is not...

I wouldn't go with the larger headphones. They are just too big. From what you have said about the PX200, they sound good for me. Its just the matter of driving them with my muvo2. They have 200 ohms, so I don't think they will get too loud. Volume is very important. EDIT Actually, looking...

I want closed earphones... I know that much... My music taste is rock, pop, r n b, jazz ... its kinda all over the place. oh, and my budget is about 100 usd.

Hi all, This is my first post and I am a beginner with all this. I used to own a minidisc player (N910) but have recently sold it and bought a 4gb Creative Labs Muvo, which is on its way to me now. It has 30mW.... but I don't know ohms. The only earphones I own are aiwa vx100! I need...
