Decent but nothing great
Pros
Easy setup of going through mp3 albums. Doesn't skip
Cons
30 second loading time to load up mp3's. Looks cheap.

No
The Bottom Line:
Looking for another mp3 player around my price range. If you can get it under $70, it's not too bad for an MP3 Player.
I purchased this mp3 player off Ebay and didn't get to see the player up close.
First Impressions: When I opened up the box, I was surprised to see and feel a flimsy plastic casing (since I am use to the harder plastic or metalic shockwave casings). (1 / 5)
MP3 playing: The loading time for this mp3 player is about 30 seconds, and a 1-3 second pause between tracks, which is very annoying. I don't know if this is the standard for mp3 players, if it isn't, please let me know. and you can use CDRW's so you can make constant mixes of mp3's on one CD.(3.5 / 5)
Normal CD Usage: I used a normal CD, and this player does not live up to a CD standard. It takes a while for the CD to load and to start playing. Slower than most CD Players. (1.5 / 5)
Extras Included: Car power & tape deck adapter and headphones.
I wish it included a player pouch but it didn't. since this CD player is quite flimsy, if you drop it, guaranteed it will break. I put it in my napsack and it came out with some scratches. (2 / 5)
Sound: I can hardly hear the music or the bass with the earphones provided. The ear phones I use, aren't much help either. (2 / 5)
Power: It is suppose to last about 10 hours with mp3 and 15 hours with normal CD's. That's not too bad. I think 4 hours with rechargable batteries. (4 / 5)
