All white front, chrome back, looks the mutts nuts. Only one ear jack but wait... This thing is awesome! Totally useable 1GB capacity. Upped 51 bigger than screen size photos, two episodes of Invasion... AND nearly four decent sized albums as well. More importantly, they all played. Video needs to be re-encoded to play better, but that was to be expected and the music... sounds beautiful. The different EQs work well and the screen keeps you fully informed of track/folder info. My only gripes? Automatically finishing one album/folder and moving to the next seems to take ages (okay, about thirty seconds) and the dial on the front is slightly 'niggly'. (But then, I got it second hand from someone who'd had it 3 months and could have been a right heavy handed muttha... Still, gotta love it! Got one the other week (a steal at 35 quid.)

I have 2 of them and although it 'claims' to store up to 1gig or etc... (my white ipod lookalike actually says it stores 8 gigs when u look at the properties after connecting it to the computer), it really only stores 128mb (or less, the white ipod only stores 108mb). also, some people claim to have been able to upload 1gig of music. Although this is true, the first 128mb stored is the only files that'll run. The rest of the appox 880mb turns into unusable corrupt files. to sum up- NEVER buy electronics produced/sold/marketed from china.. clothing and watches on the other hand.. ^^ dont buy it.. its a piece of crap..

The "fit and finish" isn't nearly what a "real" iPod would be, though. Has anyone been able to track down a manufacturer? About all I've found is that it isn't made by AipTek. hehe I know a couple folks that have them, and the thing seems to perform fairly well.

Its less simplistic to use than i-pod but also much more versatile. Works great, comes with sweet chinese music video, and makes you feel good that you are not one of those apple buying smarmy bastards.
