Summary: This thing pumps major VOLUME !
Review: The sound is unbelievable and I can upgrade it to whatever memory I want !!! You won't ever need another player.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Nice player. Non-existent support.
Review: This is a pretty nice MP3 player, unless you need service. The FM reception is awful, but I knew that from reading other reviews before I bought mine. The MP3 player is quite nice. It sounds good, is easy to connect to the computer, and takes Compact Flash, which is rare in an MP3 player.

Then the CF card that came with it went bad. I've sent email and left voice-mail at least 8 times over the last month, and I haven't heard a word in response. I consider myself lucky that it's just the CF card, since I can replace that quite easily myself (which I've done). If the player itself were to break during the warranty period, I'd be completely out of luck.

I'll buy from a company that stands behind their products next time.

Summary: Very nice player
Review: This is my first time to buy a MP3 player. I chose the NEX IA because it looks nice and its not that expensive. And I have to say I made the right decision. I mainly use the player when I take the train to work. Surprisingly, the sound from the NEX IA was both very clear and loud. Compared with the MD that I had before, the sound from the train did not drown out my music. With my MD, I could hardly hear anything.

The operation of the player was very simple. There was no need to read the manual at all. every buttons were self intuitive. The 256MB memory could store close to 3 - 4 hours of music which is plenty for me.

The construction of the player is also very sturdy. I dropped it couple of times and the player still functions without a flaw.

So all in all, I am pleased with my purchase and I recommmend it to everyone who is looking for a portable music player.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good Deal
Review: This player does not require any special software like too many other players. Just pop your Compact flash in a card reader and drag and drop your tunes. No security encryption and all that like the IPOD.

I was able to use my camera cards in the rig and they work fine. On vacation I load up all my camera cards with music and delete the music with I need to take more photos.

Love the MP3 Player. Easy to use quick response. A great basic player. I am using a gig card. You can purchase just the player without a card for just over $100.

Good company support and firmware releases.

Buy one.

Summary: Compact Flash Reader and MP3
Review: This thing is great, even with Mac. I have one and I simply download to my CF reader and pop it in. I am surprised by hold great the sound is much better, 10 times that the thumbdrives that I have heard. Fun, Easy and a Great universal device for CF media.

Summary: FM RADIO DOES NOT WORK IN NEX 1A
Review: Why nobody even mention about this. Looks like review done by manufacturer.
I tryied 3 units the same problem FM can receive 1 radio station in San Francisco area. My 5$ digital walkman can receive 25 stations in perfect quality.
So, FM recording feature is useless, because there is noise only.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Worked great (for 6 months)
Review: [...]

Anway, I continued to use the mp3 player and actually found it very useful for the last six months. Last week, the FM transmitter failed and now there is a noticable hum in the mp3 playback. From the beginning it was apparent that the build quality was very questionable. As others have said, I should have paid an extra $50 and gotten an MP3 player from a reputable company (Apple, Creative, etc.)
