Iphone Portable Speakers - ihome, mp3 player


I've spent a lot of time and some money looking for a suitable speaker set for my Ipod Touch. I like to view movies while laying in bed and this is perfect. No power cords to get in the way, sound is good for my purposes. There is a little ledge to rest the Ipod on, and it allows me to view in landscape mode. All the docking speakers force me to remove the case and most of them force portrait mode position. This is perfect as I don't want to struggle with the case or viewing position. It's a great value for my uses.



Pros:

Landscape mode viewing

Sound is good

Don't have to remove case from ipod

Inexpensive

No power cord so very portable



Cons:

Doesn't charge Ipod

Battery powered (4 AAs) iHome iHM9 Portable Stereo System for iPod, iPhone, and MP3 Players (Black)

I purchased this tonight and cannot believe the sound clarity that this lil' thing has. I am very pleased with the sound however cannot give this a 5-star rating because the cord has a strange setup. Instead of being hidden the cord must wrap around the side to plug into the ipod. I have a 3rd gen nano (lil' square one) and the jack is on the bottom making it sit off-center. Also props the ipod a little off the back plate. If this didn't sound as good as it does I would take it back. For this price its definitely a keeper!

Wow...this thing is great. Yes, it runs on batteries. And no, it doesn't charge your ipod. But it costs $18 and it's portable! All you need is 4 AA batteries and you can take your music anywhere! It's great if you are having a BBQ, hanging out on the boat, or just want to move it from room to room to enjoy your ipod! I loved it so much, I ordered a second one just to have for when I do stuff outside. It's little, it's loud, it's a great setup. Totally worth the money!

I wanted a small, battery-powered speaker system to be able to listen to my Sandisk Sansa View while at work. The only issue is a work in a distribution center with very loud, continuous noise; conveyor belts, machine horns, loud bangs of large plastic totes being thrown about, etc. With the environment, I also wanted something that, should it get broken, I wouldn't be out $50 or so, which seems to be the average price for speaker systems for devices other than iPod.



This works by plugging into your device's headphone jack. There is a notch in the center where you're supposed to stand it up like it is pictured above, only they didn't account for the cord, so it makes your player sit somewhat off-kilter, unless you just lay it on its side (which I've taken to doing). This could have been fixed with a groove that ran along the back of the tray, but that's really the only major complaint I have.



This thing is -loud-. It only works by your player's volume, but it's got a lot of power to it for being battery-powered. At max volume, I can hear it even above all the noise I specified above (though, I'll admit, listening to anything purely instrumental or quiet/soothing is impossible in that environment), though for the normal user, half-volume or lower would probably be easily sufficient.



As for how fast it goes through batteries, I've had to change mine after approximately 24-26 hours of play at the maximum volume. Once the batteries start to go, the sound gets incredibly crackly at the high volumes and gets worse fairly quickly. Though I have noticed that the crackle goes away (at least temporarily) when the volume is turned down, which leads me to believe the batteries have the potential to last even longer when not played on full-blast continuously.



All in all, very pleased with my purchase. If you want a cheap, small, battery-powered speaker that works with any audio device, this is it.

I bought this yesterday after looking long and hard at this and a few other portable speakers for my iPod Nano 3rd gen. I wasn't entirely sure it could produce the kind of sound I needed, and was almost certain I would end up taking it back.



Boy, was I wrong!



The moment I plugged my iPod into this speaker I was amazingly surprised at the wonderful sound quality this little unit produced, and the kind of volume it could crank out. I can even play my collection of Trance music and be able to hear the bass clearly!



Another reviewer commented on the strange cord setup which was a bit inconvenient for the iPod Nano - yes, it is a little odd, but personally I don't mind one bit. This speaker was every bit worth the money I paid for it!

I shopped around for iPod speakers for a long time. After doing a ton of research I settled on these. Some of the reviewers said they experienced some sound quality issues and I did too until I changed the EQ settings on the iPod itself. The sound gets so loud! I am in love with this product! It is the perfect size to keep in smaller places like the kitchen and bathroom! I love being able to sing in the shower now!The only issue I have is when I move the product from room to room I have to keep a sturdy hold on the iPod itself or it falls off, but that is only a minor distraction. I love love this unit! - Mp3 Player - Ihome - Ipod Speakers - Speakers'

Hdmi Cable Splitter - hdmi cable splitter, hdmi


I purchased this product because it was the only solution I found that didn't require me buying another HDMI cable. I was expecting that I would need to manually switch between cable and dvd player which was fine. However, when I received the switcher a few days later, I plugged it in to the TV and attached the cable and dvd player cables to the unit (which is very small)I found that the unit switched itself, sensing where the signal was coming from. Amazing considering the price.

Dollar for dollar, this thing cannot be beat. This is one of those rare purchases that far exceeded my expectations. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with this. HDMI 3-In 1-Out HDMI Auto Switch with 55cm Pigtail Support 3D

The auto switch function worked once. Now I must manually switch it every time. But, it is better than nothing. I have an older flat screen with one HDMI port. I don't use the Blu Ray player everyday, so manually pushing the switch button it is not a problem. It would be nice if the auto switch function worked as advertised, however.



UPDATE: I found out there is a setting on the blu-ray player that enables quick startup. When this is on, the player puts out a signal constantly and the auto switcher won't switch. I turned this feature off and now the auto switcher works as advertised. I have had no problems since disabling this on my blu-ray player. I have the blu-ray player on port 1 and the cable box on port 2. That way the switcher selects the blu-ray player when I turn the player on and defaults to the cable box when I turn the player off.

I use this switcher to connect three devices to a single TV. The switcher selects whichever input is currently sending a signal. Works like magic.



In fact one device in my setup, the Roku box, always sends a signal because it has no power button, unfortunately. This switcher works okay though because it implements a well defined priority when two or more devices are on. The Roku is connected to the third position in the switcher, so its signal passes through the switcher only when both of the other devices are off.



By the way, the other two devices are a blu ray player and a DVD player. It looks like I'll always want this DVD player because it works better than BD players for things fast forwarding and reviewing.

I got this in hopes of solving my problem of 4 HDMI outputs for 2 HDMI inputs. The switcher help me with my PS3 and Xbox 360, but not my DirecTV HD DVR and Sony DVD player.



My DVD player would have picture, but no sound, forcing my TV to pop up a message that said I needed to connect audio inputs in Video 3 input because my TV said the dvd player was using a DVI signal(?). My DVR would have no sound and snow for a picture until I flipped back and forth on my HDMI inputs until it finally comes in.



I not too happy with this switcher, but it does help me if I just leave my DVD player in the second input and use the first for my DVR, PS#, and Xbox 360. This switcher seems like it was meant more for gaming systems with HDMI outputs that for anything else.

My equipment: ATT Uverse, LG BlueRay DVD, Samsung DLP HD with only one HDMI connection. Plugged the HDMI port into the Samsung's HDMI port, LG BD into #1 & Uverse DVR into #2. Turned on all equipment -- LG BD input on the TV screen, turned off the LG BD and Uverse appeared on the screen -- turned the LG BD back on and it reappeared on the TV screen. Couldn't ask for more -- sound and picture quality perfect. Recommended for anyone with older HD TV with only one HDMI port. I don't play games so don't know how they would work with the switch.

I ordered this expecting I would need to get up and hit the switch for it to work in my setup (Mitsubishi DLP TV with a 3D adapter box). Instead, I have my PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 connected to the switch which is then connected to my 3D adapter kit. Now I can play PS3, 360, and PC games on my tv, with all of them running through my adapter box.



For those wondering how the switcher works, you can either press a button to switch it or let it switch automatically. The automatic switcher will default to whatever is on first or is always on (like a media computer or cable box). Then, whenever a new device comes on, it switched to that.

Unusual to write a review about an HDMI splitter/switch, but as anyone who has tried to set up a home theater system without the aid of a geek squad knows it can be a very frustrating process. My Sony HD TV has 2 HDMI slots and one was hooked to the TV and the other to the sound system. Other configurations (I tried every cord you can imagine)did not work and I needed another HDMI slot to hook up my apple TV. This splitter works great and in minutes everything just miraculously worked. By the way, the apple TV is crazy cool!

I purchased this because the TV only has 2 inputs. It doesn't work properly. These are the two setups that it failed miserably in.



1: Sony BDP-S270, Roku XDS, Foxconn PC.



Set up with Roku on 3 (because it has constant power), Sony BR on 2, and PC on 1.



Sony S270 won't display on the unit at all. It gives some garbled mess and a terrible sound and then the Blu-ray unit shuts down.



PC sound was botched and screen kept cutting out to black every few seconds.



On top of it all the automatic switch was so buggy that it hardly ever switched to the proper device.



2: Tried moving it to the bedroom hoping to get some use out of it and not have completely wasted my money. This setup is simple: WDTV Live (1), Roku XDS (2). Both units display properly but unit never automatically switches. WDTV turned off and the unit still won't switch to Roku. I have enough HDMI inputs on this tv and the only benefit would have been the convenience of auto-switching which doesn't work.



This thing is either a faulty unit or FAR too picky for a universal solution. - Hdmi Splitter - Hdmi - Hdmi Cable Splitter - Hdmi Switcher'

Presentation Pointers - powerpoint, presenter wireless


I am a math teacher. I used this in the classroom as a remote control for my class notes.



Pros

1. Good range, but the true range is about 25 feet. If i tried to walk any farther away than that, it would only work about half the time, which is not acceptablewhen standing in a classroom full of teenagers.

2. Does not require line of sight to function, which is great when there are lots of bodies in the way (such as in a classroom).



Cons

1. Needs a special A23 battery, which in my experience is frequently out of stock at many stores.

2. You MUST remove the battery after every use, or the pointer will drain the battery overnight. This is true mainly because....

3. The buttons feel like they can become stuck at any moment, and are very flimsy. In fact, the "previous" button became stuck after one day. Fortunately, it was not stuck in an "on" position, but rather in a way that made it unusable.

4. The laser became ineffective after about a week of use, even with a new battery. Which wasn't an issue anyway because the laser button became stuck about a week after that!



All in all, i used this pointer for about 3 months, 3 hours per day in my classroom. I went through probably 8 batteries during that time (though a couple of those were because i left them in overnight). Ultimately, i gave up on this device and i now use an infared Windows remote (basically looks like a typical TV remote, but with mouse control!). The IR receiver is high up in the room, so no issues with line-of-sight.



I'm sure there are higher quality remote devices out there. Mine probably still works (the "Next" button, anyway), so for the price it was a good deal. I needed something more durable for my daily use, so if you need a remote control as an essential tool for your job, i would recommend that you look for a different device. RF Wireless Red Laser Pointer Presentation Device (BLACK FINISH) with Page Up/down Presentation Function and more!

This pointer is better than I expected. I work on the road and need to present PowerPoint. It is small and fits into your hand so that the viewer watches you, and not what's in your hand! It definitely does the job that much more expensive products tout.



It came right on time for my big presentation. I definitely recommend it!

I bought this to help me to be able to move around the room while doing speeches with power points.I was hesitant because of some bad reviews. Those people got lemons and that happens.I have used this product with no problems in classrooms, finished basements, large rooms, and even an auditorium and a large hall. I have been able to use this from well over 50 feet away from the computer and the laser can bee seen clearly form a greater distance than I had expected. I am buying another one for my mens group that has just bought a projector to show movies and do power points in their meetings. They used mine a couple times and said order one up for us it works great. However Two notes for better use.



1 take the battery out when not in use or when you put it in the case. The buttons push in the case and will kill the battery life. I realized this right away and avoided killing a battery.



2 when you put it in to your computer give it some time to get going, and again when you start your presentation give it a few seconds to set up the signal before scrolling through slides. then its sharp and reliable.



I give it 5 stars as it is a great little tool at a great value.

This product has a huge range for going up/down between slides on PowerPoint. It also works with a pdf file or MS Word document. I could even change slides from another room! It has a very comfortable design and comes in a great carrying case. I was disappointed, though, that the laser wears out after about a minute of use. Hopefully, I can exchange it for one that works better, or I'll have to use my old laser pointer in one hand and this product in the other for my presentations.

This is a great little unit. The USB receiver was recognized right away on all the computers I tried it on (several different varieties of laptop) without any device driver installation required, just as advertised. The wireless unit works flawlessly from all the way across the room and the laser pointer works just as it should also. All in all, excellent value for the money and I've been 100% satisfied. It even came with a spare battery.

I have bought THREE of these because they keep breaking. I'm not buying another one. The laser goes very dim, even with fresh batteries. One worked for about 2 months; the other 2 lasted about a week. Also, you can't store it in the case because it tends to push the buttons and drain the batteries. There's no on/off button to prevent this from happening, and the buttons are pretty soft.



Plus, it takes a weird battery, which you have to special order.



Don't buy it. Just don't. - Laser Pointer - Presenter Wireless - Powerpoint - Presentation'

Summer Studies - summer workbook, summer studies


I am a teacher. I think that this book is perfect for a child that is in need to work on skills he/she has not mastered yet because it has so many pages! A child who has worked hard and has suceeded first grade does not need so much exercise. Besides pictures are boring and no reading guides are provided. "Summer Smarts" has fewer pages, activities are funny and related to a first grader's experiences. And it provides guided reading at the end of the book. However I would strongly suggest " Summer Bridge" to a child who has struggled during first grade and/or to a child who has not mastered basic skills yet. Summer Bridge Activities: 1st to 2nd Grade

While Summer Bridge has been a fairly decent way for my daughter to keep her skills fresh over the summer, it really wasn't challenging enough to hold her interest. She finished each day's work in about 10 minutes, and said she found the material boring. I think it'd be more useful to a child who needed a little remedial work before starting second grade. Much of the material was actually work that she'd done in kindergarten, and it's not as though my daughter's a prodigy; she's on a par with other children in a parochial school.The other thing that annoyed me was incredibly sloppy editing - sorry, folks, but "gnat" is not spelled "knat", and there were a number of exercises that were misprinted. Since this isn't an inexpensive book, I don't appreciate spending money and finding it full of errors. Also, the instructions for some of the exercises were pretty unclear - there were a couple where I had to check the answers page to be sure of what my daughter needed to do. I'll hesitate before buying the same series next year, even though the concept is a sound one.

I would recommend this book to those first graders who still need to learn basic skills. It provides a great deal of practice in any basic skills taught in first grade and those needed to advance to second grade. However it requires about one full hour of work daily, which I think it's too much for a vacationing child who worked hard throughout the school year and obtained good marks.Besides it does not provide worksheets for any book even though there's a list of good reading books on one of the first pages. Another bad point of this workbook is the layout which is rather dull and will not attract the eye of your child. For those average to advanced first graders I would suggest a book like "Summer Smarts" which provides less practice in a more kid-friendly layout.

I bought this for my grandson, who has just finished the first grade, in hopes it would help him keep up the skills he learned and get him a little ahead for next year. I also bought the 4-5 book for his sister and brother.Having observed what it took to get our oldest grandson through the school system and prepare him to compete for the best colleges (he won a scholarship to West Point), and having raised and educated four children of my own, I'm probably (dare I say it?) more qualified than a teacher to judge what's best in terms of academic materials. (I have also taught at the elementary level as well as in college.)This material is too repetitive in terms of lessons already learned. It doesn't provide enough new material to be interesting, much less challenging. My first/second grader grandson is a disinterested but average student and he breezed through this book with barely a nod.To be fair, the book did half of what I'd hoped. It does help him keep the skills he acquired. It doesn't, however, move him ahead. I will have to provide exercises to do that on my own.The competition for top-notch colleges today is fierce. It will probably only get "fiercer" in the future. I'll be looking for other sources to help my grandchildren excel in their schoolwork.

I've bought books in these series for 2 summers in a row now. They are a great way to keep key educational elements alive for your child until they go back to school, without overwhelming them with work during summer vacation. Each day has an assigned lesson and they take 10 - 15 minutes top to complete. There is a reward system so that you can set up a treat or prize if they complete a certain number of days. My daughter really liked these.

As a third grade teacher, I have found this series to be an excellent summer review program. It takes my own children about 15 minutes to do their pages each day, while providing critical review in reading, grammar, and math. I will recommend this book to all of my students' parents next year. Even the highest students can benefit from a short review during the summer.

I am so happy I bought this for my daughter going into 2nd grade. Each page just picked right up with things she'd been doing in 1st grade - but not overdoing it! This book was just right to keep the brain thinking, and yet the pages only took 10-15 min to complete. Great buy! - Summer Studies - Summer - Summer Workbook - Kids'

Healthy Eating - sports drink, tasty


I was deployed to Iraq last year with the US Marine Corps. My wife sent me some of these which I put into the mini fridge that my hut had. After a 12 hour combat resupply mission, coming back to the hut and having one of these made me feel almost human again. I actually started saving them for the hottest/longest days. The taste is a little different, if you are used to gatorade or coke, but it is nice. Drink it cold.



To me, this is good but nowhere near as good as the pineapple flavor. I think the mango just does not compliment the peach, BUT, it's still good and appears to be healthy and has a reasonable amount of calories. It was between a 3 and 4 for me so I rounded up to 4.



It's light and refreshing, like water with mango, peach, and coconut flavor added. It doesn't taste phony either. It is 100% natural and it tastes natural. Too good to be just flavored water. It tastes more like a light fruit juice. I had mine chilled. It is imported from Brazil. A plastic twist-off cap allows you to stick in a straw easily, without hammering the package to punch it through. A single package is about 6 inches high, with 3 inch diagonal square shape.



One paper coated package contains 17 fluid ounces, marked as 2 servings. Per serving stats are 60 calories (so 120 calories total per package), 0 fat, 0 cholesterol, 30mg sodium, 500 mg potassium, 15g sugar, 4 % calcium, 4 % phosphorus, 175 % vitamin C, 8 % magnesium. Ingredients, as listed in order on package are: natural coconut water, mango puree, peach puree, ascorbic acid (vitamin C). The package states it is 100 % natural, has more electrolytes than leading sports drinks with 15 times the potassium, and has more potassium than 2 bananas.



So--- it is good, refreshing, healthy, easily packable, and easily openable. (It's ok. I can make up words. I work for the government.) I really like the high potassium content, too. (Note--I am NOT a doctor.) As the sweltering East Coast heat and humidity approaches, potassium helps with the fluid you lose. Whether you are on fluid pills, or working outside in the eat, or running and jogging for your health, or hiking, or your children are playing and running in the heat, it's a real good idea to keep those potassium levels up. Low potassium levels, as I understand it, can be harmful, leading to cramps in your legs or worse--maybe even making you pass out. Anyway, this is good and it sure tastes a lot better to me than Gatoraid (yuk). So, check it out, and read up on "potassium" before the heat gets here.

I've tired almost all of the vita cocos besides the tangerine and grape fruit and I can say this is the really not that bad. The peach flavor kinda balances it out with the coconut water. The nutrition is equal to the pineapple but not the acai(acai is still better). here is the nutrition for the peach



Sodium 40mg = 2%

Potassium 660mg = 19%

Total Carb 20g

Protein 0g

Trans fat 0g

Dietary fiber 0g

Sugars 20g

Vitamin A 0%

Calcium 5%

Phosphorous 5%

Vitamin C 230%

Iron 0%

Magnesium 10%

Natural Coconut Water,

Mango Puree, Peach Puree,

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)



Over all this is one of my favorite flavors. Still got two other flavors to try.

I've tried other coconut waters and Vita Coco is the best. There flavors taste fantastic and it is a healthier alternative to sugary sports drinks. I was working 12 hour days in a hot building all summer and no issues with cramping when I drank one of these a day. The peach and mango is my favorite.

Mango has a specific scent and flavor - if you like it, this is a nice way to drink coconut juice. A big advantage of coconut water - being alkaline - is wiped out by the fruit acids - giving this mix overall an acidic ph. You still get the minerals from the coconut water.

My friend purchased a 12-pack of the Tangerine-flavored Vitacoco and it was excellent. Really light flavor, refreshing, perfect bit of citrus. I decided to try a different flavor, so I bought a 12-pack of the Peach & Mango. Let me say this - it is honestly one of the foulest things I've ever tasted. I was able to drink half of one container before pouring the rest out in disgust. Reminds me of when I was a teenager and I was forcing down my first mixed alcoholic drink, and the taste was nearly unbearable. I had my friend try a container, and his was awful, too.



I don't know if I got a bad batch or if this is how Peach & Mango is supposed to taste but I am thoroughly dissatisfied. My friend ordered a variety pack, so we're gonna compare the Peach & Mango from his pack to get to the bottom of this. I know this much... I will never buy the flavor again. I'm going back to Tangerine. I won't even experiment with the other flavors, either, after this experience.

I have tried many flavors of Vita Coco coconut water and this is my least favorite. It truly reminded me of baby food flavors. I did give it three stars because it is healthy and it does rehydrate. Otherwise I will not be buying this again. I will stick to plain or tangerine flavored. - Juice - Coconut - Health Food - Health - Sports Drink - Tasty'

Intuitive - mp3 player, karaoke


I shared some pictures of this red mp3 player.

I bought it from amazon three weeks ago.

It's my favorate mp3 player ever. I mean if you really just want something to play your music for you.

The battery is the best part I love. It lasts forever.

I love the "sleep mode". I usually set "automatically turn off in 30 min". Then I choose a playlist or a bookmark and go to sleep.(I love these two because I set them by myself)

It's beautiful because it has a plastic clear case covered the red face which makes it looks like a crystal.

The back of it is black plastic. You can never see your finger prints on it.

I suggest you to see the pictures I took for this product and decide if it's the one you want. Sony Walkman NWZ-E354 8GB Digital Music Player (Red)

I replaced my old ipod which I had repaired twice with so-called 'new' batteries, which would not hold a charge. Got the Sony due to recommendations from a couple of stores as well as on-line comments. I love the long battery life. I use it in my car with an audio jack into my car's radio system and listen to books commuting to work. Only downside is that it is not quite as user friendly as the ipod, but compared to the new nano, the Sony is light years better.

I really don't know why people go for iPod Nanos and Zune 16s.

If you're looking for a lightweight, easy-to-use, versatile MP3 player with good capacity, this is definitely the best choice.



It is so easy to sync songs from my computer to my walkman. Just drag and drop!

You can make the player analyze the songs and assign a category (mood, time, etc.) for it and listen to that specific mix. And it actually works!

You can even download lyric files for your songs and sing along to your songs like karaoke!



This player is for the real music listener with sing-along, and good sound quality. The controls are really easy and intuitive. Definitely the best player 8GB out there.

I waited a few months before writing the review to give me time to use the MP3 player. I do not use the Video capability because of the small, 2 in. diagonal screen. I bought it because of the claimed battery life and storage capacity. The 8GB is probably much more than I will ever use, but I prefer to get a bit more than I expect to need for future growth. I keep things for a long time, but use them only occasionally. My old Sony Walkman with Cassette player and FM was over 27 years old when the cassette player stoppec working this year. What a disapointment, but an overall good experience. This MP3 player is a perfect replacement. Since I don't use it much, I can't comment on the overall battery life, except to say that after using it for several hours to play FM or MP3 songs, the battery is still nearly fully charged. I expect the 50 Hour life is a good estimate. I hope the battery lasts for quite a few years. It will take me years to determine the quality and overall life of the Battery and unit. The FM radio works very well, and the setting of stored channels is easy to use. Other functions are easy to use. I expect and get good results with Sony products. This is my first MP3 player so I can't compare it to other brands. Downloading the MP3 and CD songs into the player was NO problem. I purchased MP3 songs from Amazon and Ripped songs from my CD collection easily. Overall, I am VERY pleased with this MP3 player.

I bought this to replace an MP3 player that was a few years old and primarily to listen to Podcasts and Audio Books.



Easy to set up, trasnfer content and use.



Two(2) nuances if you aren't familiar with mp3 players.





(1) To fast forward a bit at a time you have to carefully hold down the forward skip button or you skip the whole track. Thank you to another customer for pointing this out to me. Not in the instructions.



(2) If you wnt to use the sleep timer function, you need to turn the beep function off---- or just as you have drifted off and reached the timeout, you'll be awakened by a trumpety TA DA announcing shut down, jolting you awake.



Very slick, sleek little gadget with superb battery life. A keeper.

Things I love:



1) Ease of use - just hook it up and then drag/drop music files onto it.

2) Great battery life - it lasts MUCH longer than my iPod ever did!

3) FM Radio tuner has surprisingly clear reception

4) Very user friendly and great portability - it's very lightweight!

5) Can't beat the price!

6) Has just the features that I want, none of those extra fancy features that I don't want/need



Wishes (which are the only reasons that the player does not get 5 stars):



1) Unless you buy a separate wall-charger, you have to charge it by plugging it into your computer. This isn't always practical when traveling on vacation, etc.

2) The headphones plug into the bottom of the console. This is a pain when I'm using a treadmill or exercise bike and want to place the MP3 player on the dash in front of me. I have to place the console sideways since the headphones coming out of the bottom prevent you from placing it upright. (NOTE: I looked at the iPod Nano and the headphone plug is designed the same way on the bottom of the Nano).

3) The MP3 player comes with only basic written instructions; you have to plug it into a computer and use some original files saved onto it to download the detailed users manual. Unfortunately, I didn't realize this and I deleted my access file. Now I can't seem to get another copy of the detailed users manual, which I could use (for some reason I can't figure out how to play back videos on the player).



All in all, though, a great purchase that I am very happy with and would definitely recommend! - Broken - Intuitive - Karaoke - Mp3 Player'
