A Cheap CD Player Without the Cheap Price
(1 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on May 22, 2003I purchased this CD player because I wanted the long play time without changing CD's. I was going to buy a Minidisc Player, but hesitated to because of its linux incompatibility. I regret buying this product greatly for the following reasons:
1)It is neither Stylish or Ultra-slim. While the site claims it is thin and sylish in reality it is as thick as any other cd player because it needs to take AA batteries, In regards to style, the top is silver and fancy looking, but the bottom half which there are no photos of is just plain old white plastic.
2) While this CD player is pretty expensive, it still has terrible build quality. The controls feel terrible and as though they are about to break with each push, and the jog wheel is even worse. If you are commited to buying an CD MP3 player buy a cheaper model, increased quality to go with the higher price is simply not present.
3) The volume control is difficult to use in comparison to a simple wheel

The Possitives are, it has not broken yet, the shock protection is good so far, and it does indeed play MP3's and ATRAC's.
