my new mp3 player

i just bought a sony network walkman (nw-e95), 512 mb. so
far i filled it with analords and skam cats. i costs a bit
more then the upcoming ipod shuffle, but i think it's worth
it. the shufflecrap does'nt even have a display, and this
one looks maybe even nicer then the ipods. and the battery
is supposed to last for 70 hours!

seems to be a nice mp3 player, how much did you pay for it?

1600 NOK (norwegian kroner) / 6.081 NOK/USD =~ 263 USD

450 you-rows goddamnit!

yes probably a typo. it says up to 70 hours.. the battery
(1xAAA) are supposed to be the best about this one.

I prefer the 1GB ipod shuffle which is even cheaper than
that 512 model.

ipod shuffle. it's hilarious. since it does'nt have a
display they make big point out of the shuffle function,
like it's something new they discovered. did'nt like that
marketing..

also I don't think it plays MPEG-4 - AAC Audio format, which
is a pain in the arse as 99% of my tracks are in that
format,

screen is a non issue for me on such a small mp3 player

that sony does look nice though, i'll give it that. Most mp3
players except the ipod look like shit, sony is good at
design though in comparison to most.

I think the shuffle is funky. I usually play tunes at random
on my 10gb iPod, and I do not keep my eye on the display
while doing so.

It is what it is, a memory stick that can play songs.

i would have bought the shuffle if i didn't already have an
iPod mini.

i have'nt been able to use it yet though, due to the

I would get an iPod shuffle too but you can't get at the
battery so I'll probably get a muvo v200 instead (nicer
anyway!)

The Zen Micro's feel cheap compared to it iPod mini
counterpart. The control's a bit fiddly and doesn't respond
as well as the clickwheel.

have fun changing your battery when it dies then! (not to
mention shitty support)

Haha, I do not own a Zen. I'm rocking a 2nd gen iPod and I'm
very pleased with that, thankyouverymuch.

Whoops sorry, I stated my iPod before I realized. The
battery hasn't acted up yet, and when it does it's easypeasy
to upgrade to a better one.

ps. the Zen's are easypeasier!

:D

The zen battery is also very prone to be stolen. Actually
I'm just picking at it desperately, cause I wish the battery
was was like that on my iPod. But then again it wouldn't be
so damn sexay if it had.
