(2 out of 5) by Guilherme Mohallem on Jun 24, 2008I bought it a while ago and as there were no instructions the sound came out really bad till I understood the earplugsm ust be inserted all the way in. By then, they are wrecked,
By the 7th time i used them thephones snapped appart ( apparently they don't like ater very much). i contacted the company but no answers.
I bought another set of plugs and started to use them al the way it and they lasted a little longer, except there were a lot of bad contact and lots of times only one side worked
i used it 10 times till the whole things stopped. it looked like a short circuit. the songs kept playing like in intro and then nothing worked any longer. ( i guess it happended because of the water....)
if it lasted longer it would be a blessing. had a great time with it while it worked....

Just did not do it
(3 out of 5) by amy racecar on Apr 12, 2008 (NC)This product just did not do it for me - it is ok at best for a waterproof mp3 player though in the ergonomics department it is great. The sad thing is you cannot set it on shuffle, it is a pain to flip past a track, and if you want to clear your goggles well you better buy the extended headphones because there is little slack to work with. Also the ear plugs do not fit well in my ears nor is the audio quality very good (I have had three previous waterproof mp3 players and the freestyle in the end wins). It has a great design but really needs a software upgrade to allow playlists etc. instead of arduous file listings while connected via USB to the device.
Also might I add that NUI Digital (the vendor NOT the manufacturer) sent me one that was defective and never refunded me the shipping cost; called and harassed me at home, and in the end shipped me a second one that was also defective.
I had to call the Netherlands as this Item is not distrubuted in the US by the manufacturer to get the instruction manual (NUI Digital which is an apartment in Hawaii did not include this PDF/Document). And finally determined with the help of their sales manager that the second one was also defective......I am not sure what to believe but NUI digital is a company I will never ever deal with again and I would like to thank Amazon for making this one right by me.
