Rating: Summary: Not a review but a marketing concern Review: Amazon bodly proclams:
List Price: $179.99
Price: $85.99
Shipping. See details
You Save: $94.00 (52%)
Availability: Usually ships within 1 to 2 days from Amazon.com
You can buy the same item at Creative's own online retail store for $89.99. They do not post a list price but if the manufacture is selling them for $89.99, to me that is a $4.00 savings or a 4% savings!!!
Rating: Summary: Exactly what I wanted Review: Easy to use, good equalizer, all in all it's exactly as described and exactly what I wanted. I don't know why people would pay so much more for the same thing with a different name.
Rating: Summary: A Creative Triumph Review: I am a 12-year-old kid who waned and iPod. I took one look at the prices and desperately searched for an alternative. I found this product. I worked and did odd-jobs for it so I expected a lot. Finally I received it and tore it open. Within minutes I was struck dumb with love. Now, almost a month later, this still has not worn off. I see a lot of complaints that the volume is to quiet. Maybe people got bad copies, I don't know. But when I crank the volume all the way up people can hear it in other parts of my house. Also someone said that you can't fast-forward tracks. No offense to whoever wrote it but that is a lie. If you simply hold the click wheel it fast forwards. One thing I was dumbfounded by was the size. By the picture I thought it would be roughly the size of an iPod, or a deck of cards. In real life, it is the size, shape and width of a Zippo Lighter. In conclusion, I would strongly recommend you purchase the product. Thnx.
Rating: Summary: Prefect for an active user Review: I choose to get a flash based player so I can use it while skiing. If you creating large forces (skiing the bumps or my famous yard sales) on a hard drive player you can destroy it, so I had to go with a flash based player.
Creative is great about making these players out of good components that give you the best sound for their size. This little player sounds great compared to its competitors. The volume some times isn't adequate but this is probably the result of the demand for longer battery life. Simple fix if you want to use big headphones with lots of sound pick up a headphone amplifier. You'll get full highs and lows and great battery life.
Battery life is really good considering it is powered only by a AAA battery. A few people have complained about baterry life but I just carry a couple of charged NiMH batteries with me and charge them when I get home. The extra weight I carry isn't much but tripples my play time on the road.
The plug in play is wonder full. This player is reconized in everycomputer I've tried. Windows XP, Mac OSX, and Linux! It just shows up as a USB drive. At home the MediaSource software package allows me to recompress my music at a lower bit rate and upload it to my player without changing my collection. When I'm on a ski trip I just have several folders full of these smaller mp3s on a old laptop that I can transfer and change my playlist for the next day.
Rating: Summary: Creative Labs Muvo TX128 Review: I kept reading the different reviews and finally just went ahead and got this one. I love it. It is so lightweight, easy to load and plays with outstanding sound. On the down side, it isn't user friendly with trying to do different things so haven't really figured out all the other things it does. As I wanted to just download and enjoy and that I can do.
Rating: Summary: 3-in-1 Combo (MP3 player, Voice Recorder, USB Flash Drive) Review: I seen those at The Good Guys. Here are the things I like and dislike about:Like about it: 1. Small design 2. Lightweight 3. Blue Backlight 4. Works as a USB Flash Drive (you don't have to install the CD if you're using it as a USB Flash Drive) 5. Supports Asian languages (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) 6. Use it as a keychain, carry it around your neck, or carry it on your pants 7. Voice Recorder 8. Switch screen orientation Dislike about it: 1. Doesn't hold that many songs as my 20GB iPod, but enough to hold about 240 songs with bit rate at 32kbps or about 120 songs at 64kbps I maybe buy this little gadget at the end of the summer, when I got the 20-inch LCD TV and I still got the money remaining from the summer job, or when this thing came down in price or when the 512MB came out.
Rating: Summary: Would be Excellent if it had memory expansion Review: I'm using this product since a month, and it works really fine. It comes with a belt clip and earbuds. The battery life for the TX models are pretty good (>10hrs), and the output quality is also good. I'm using it to record the lectures, but if you want to get a good quality go for a voice recorder only device, still it performs well. You can add files, mp3's WMA's and record sound on the same device and it will work without any problem, The screen is so small but still readable, and the blue backlit LCD is really good. you can resume the song that you are listening after power off and on again, and have several options for shuffle play(folder, all, repeat folder, repeat all). Pros: Reversible LCD Menus, Blue Backlit LCD, USB Stick(no need for extra cable), Voice recording capability, Jog Dial button for easy skip, and navigation in menus. Cons: Not expandable, Voice recoring quality might be better.
Rating: Summary: great little player Review: I've had this mp3 player for a few months now, and I am extremely happy with it. Pros: - Very small and lightweight - No cables or software necessary - Easy to load; you just drag and drop - Easy menu navigation with intuitive GUI - Has all the necessary features (random, repeat, set it to skip certain folders, etc) - Doubles as a flash drive - Arm strap and/or belt clip are great when you're on the move Cons: - Wide design is hard to get into the USB port on my HP at work (fits perfectly fine in my Dell at home) Overall it is a wonderful product and I am very happy with my purchase.
Rating: Summary: Wow! Review: If you don't need to carry around hundreds of songs, this is the answer. Small, light, easy to operate. Mine has about 80 songs on it, and is just over half full. Smooth integration into Windows Media Player, quick syncs, uses a AAA battery.
I've had mine about a week and it's awesome. Comes in cool colors if you're into that sort of thing.
Rating: Summary: Love It Review: Small, compact, lightweight, easy to up-load & play. Great display and controls. The included carrier and arm band accessories let me use it doing just about anything. The only negative is that I wish the MuVo TX 512Mb version was cheaper. Love It.
