Pros: Doubles as a storage drive, doesn't skip, great sound quality Cons: A bit pricey for initial investment
The HipZip MP3 player from Iomega is the best player/drive out there. Not only does it play MP3s, it also doubles as a mini-storage drive, so you can store and replay presentations, save files, etc. It can be hooked up to any computer or laptop and be...

Pros: great display. cool case. good battery. good value. Cons: small disk size. slightly large player.
Like most people shopping for a portable digital player, I read many reviews, and shopped around quite a bit. I had decided on several things that I wanted in a player before I would purchase one:
* plug and play - I want to be able to simply...

Pros: Small, lightweight, cheap expandable memory, great sound, can be used as a portable drive. Cons: Sizable initial investment, poor headphones
This is a great product. I've spent a good couple of weeks (which is a lot for an impulse buyer like me) searching stores, epinions, the web, etc. looking for just the right MP3 player. I wanted just the right one. Lots of memory or at least...

The Iomega Hip-Zip is the perfect gift for the music lover on your Christmas list. All you have to do is upload your favorite MP3 songs to the Hip-Zip's 40MB disk and you're ready to jam. It's small enough to fit just about anywhere and I challenge you...

Pros: Small, light, easy to operate Cons: Cumbersome to upgrade, customer service spotty
I received the HipZip for my birthday prior to a series of plane and car trips.
During most of these journeys, it behaved admirally. It really takes a beating well and is logically set up. I like its display, too.
My favorite...

Pros: Small, affordable, good sound, ease of use Cons: Headphone Jack may get loose
This product is excellent! I bought this product to listen to when I work-out and it's been great. Each day I make a new playlist in Music Match (which is painless) and then I download the list to the hipzip. The whole transfer process for 9 songs is...

Pros: Great looking, sounding, and performing; upgradeable firmware; cheap disks, acts as Zip Drive Cons: Larger than some other MP3 players, limited per disk storage, don't bother with included headphones
The iomega HipZip is an excellent MP3 player that offers the most bang for the buck.
It's a very good-looking device that comes with a neat body glove Neoprene holster/belt clip. It's comfortable to hold and use the controls. It includes two...

Pros: Affordable expandable memory, easy to operate, long battery life. Cons: Bit on the bulky side, crappy headphones.
I first read about this product on Amazon.com a few months ago. I was intrigued by the fact that you can use it as a portable drive as well as an MP3 player. I was looking for a replacement for the Sony MusicClip MP3 player I had bought an suffered with...

Pros: Expansive, inexpensive, great sound quality, very tough, rechargeable battery, portable hard drive! Cons: A little bulky, supplied headphones are sub-par, and can potentially skip
The pros of this Mp3 player are numerous. Firstly, it is relatively inexpensive to buy/operate. The 40-mb Clik! disks are far cheaper than other removable media, so your collection can be much more expansive than one stored on CF cards, a much more...

Pros: It's sleek and looks nice. Cons: Bulky.
Awful support from a terrible company.
Zero manufacturing quality.
Disks only 40MB.
I purchased the IOMEGA Hipzip quite some time ago, because I thought the idea was sound and since it was IOMEGA it would be a high quality product with excellent support. Boy, was I mistaken. First of all, the player's functionality is severely ...

Pros: Recent price drop, cheap replaceable media, long battery life, excellent sound, multipurpose Cons: Mechanical parts
I'd thought the HipZip was out of my range, but the recent price drop was a nice surprise. Given a choice between the HipZip and another high-end player whose 64MB sticks cost more than the player itself, I chose the HipZip. I have not regretted it....

Pros: Menu Structure, Sound Quality, Unlimited Space Cons: HUGE SIZE, noisy hard drive sounds, Click disks
I have purchased the Iomega Hipzip about 3 years back, when it was first released, until now it's working better than ever, but the money that i payed for it isn't really worth it anymore, i mean there are better mp3 players out there right now, and ...

Pros: small, high quality, good features, memory! Cons: cost, headphones
When I decided I wanted to buy a portable music device, I was doughtful on what to buy. CD player, MD player, or MP3? I did some research and ruled out some posibilities. With a CD player, you have to carry around all sorts of CDs. Even if there is...
