Gig
MP3 Player
I
wouldn't bother with it, in this incarnation any way.
The
software is pretty basic and fiddly, the battery life questionable, sound
quality iffy (it has a lot of preset EQ sound effects like Auditorium,
Concert
hall etc - but I couldn't really tell any difference and resorted back to
None!).
The
transfer software's ok and it's quite quick at downloading songs
(USB).
Each
time a new track starts, the hard disk spins up, it buffers the track and
then
spins down again. The spinning up / down can be quite noisy and I
suspect this is what kills the batteries as well.
I
don't know how it fairs with jogs etc as I've only really used it
stationary.
May
be I've got a duff one?
Having said all that - I've no idea how it
compares
with it's competitors.

Anyone got one of these yet?
Want one for background music at work but want
a
few questions answered first.
Anyone?
Thanks
