Great Player (if it worked)

(1 out of 5) by Rooster on May 22, 2003 (APO, AE United States)
I thought this product was great:
- Small and light
- Holds about 4 or 5 cds (128 mb)
- convenieint USB plugs directly in to PC w/out cable (may not fit all PC's)
- Plays through FM radio in my car

One BIG problem though; it quit working the first day!
So I exchanged it for another hoping it was a one-off fluke.
The second one quit after a couple of hours!
I called Cen Dyne, who were no help, and told me to return it for another one. I'm not taking the chance, especially since I read a review on another website that another buyer had the same problem as me.

Oh yeah, whoever wrote the manual, has very poor English, which makes following the instruction book very difficult.


Superb way to flush $100 down the toilet

[You will find similar negative reviews of this product on other websites, don't just take my word for it]:

For the 2-3 weeks that it worked, I was in heaven. When it stopped working (less than 1 month after purchase), CenDyne wanted nothing to do with me. My "Warranty/Registration Form" was returned in the mail unopened, and their website politely informed me that "CenDyne is no longer providing warranty services." Click on support and you will get the dreaded "The page cannot be found."
To top it all off, their website posts a cute little FAQs section, with one question being, "Why is CenDyne's phone number not listed here?"
You guessed it; the answer is that "CenDyne no longer provides phone support." Avoid this company like the plague.


Nice little gadget!

This is a great sounding, lightweight MP3 player that I enjoy using on a daily basis. Neck strap makes it perfect for the gym. One word of warning though: REPLACE THE HEADPHONES! The included headphones are probably the worst I've ever heard. However, once I switched to a pair of Panasonic earbuds, I realized that the headphones were the problem, not the unit itself. Sounds great, LOUD, good price for 128mb and the included RF Transmitter works great with my car stereo. Very easy to setup and use on a PC. Within 5 minutes of opening the box I had transfered songs and was ready to go. Compared to some other 128mb players out there, this is well worth the price!
