Haven't bought from there, no. This is more like it, iRiver-- a 20 gig model. It's not out *quite * yet, you'll notice that site is is taking pre-orders. SUpposed to be out late October if I remember correctly...

hehe a1leyez0nm3,

I too live in Seattle and own the iHP 100. Traveling on the metro with the iHP is pure bliss. The remote alone makes me feel extra special to own one. GL on your purchase whatever it may be.

OT: BTW did you hear, we are actually ranked 13th in the nation instead of 3 now in Traffic. LOL! They changed the way they meausured congestion even though we have made no upgrades from last year. Portland is now ranked 3! LMAO poor Oregonians.

well i dont have the money for the 120, so ill have to get the 550... it would a lot of money to spend on something that is going to go out of date within a few years anyway...

Yeah, but have you noticed:

Levertijd: meer dan 1 week

Who knows how much «more than 1 week»!

Myself I'm waiting for it too -- it's announced for end of October here in Switzerland... (same date as for HD 650!...)

The reviews for this company are either very good or very bad. Your call. I usually trust the large majority of successful business.

 

[PeterDLai]

You could wait for Comp-U-Plus Peripherals to get it, and usually they have low prices.

They currently have the lowest price for the iHP-100 ($307, but plus $15 minimum shipping).

I somewhat regret buying a Zen NX.

Must keep telling myself "sound quality" and "good value per GB".

... sound quality... good value per GB... sound quality... good value per GB...

ARGH I WANT AN iHP-120!

 

[ProFingerSk8er]

peter....i have heard the Zen, and dont take this wrong...but i like iHP's sound a lot more

 

[JaZZ]

Anybody heard of the new iHP-50?

It's called the iHP-100/120's «little brother» and obviously lacks the FM tuner and maybe also the recording function. I don't know about the line/digital out. It should be available with 10 and 20 GB. Just a little confusion about the namings...

 

[deejayshakur]

haha peter, i feel you.

just got a 20gb zen usb 2.0 a month ago...did get it at $200 from j and r, but i still....really....want....that ihp-120. i figure in a year or so, it should drop in price and i can bequeath my zen to my brother or something.

otherwise, the zen's been great. getting songs on it has its troubles, but its not all that bad.

The iHP-120 is feature loaded and sounds great, but its sound is still no match for the Zen.
