Universal BUSlink MP3-BD128 MP3 Player

Pros: Compact size; great features, capabilities, compatibility.
Cons: Prone to file corruption.

This great little device is easy to carry around and wear. It comes with a neck strap, pouch, and decent earphones. It has MP3 playing capability, file storage AND voice recording ability. And it's cross-platform compatible. Very nice!

A few drawbacks: I find it is prone to file corruption, especially if I use the voice recorder. On Mac OS X, I have to copy one set of files at a time (music especially) or files will overlap. In either case, the problem will worsen until a reformat is the only option. Therefore I have to regularly reformat the drive and start fresh, which isn't such a bad thing unless I have important voice recordings stored.

If one deletes the MDSetup file, it will cause the unit to freeze - this is a necessary file. I paid less for mine because it was on clearance; I believe the first owner deleted this file, but I was able to restore it to full functionality with a reformat.

Pros: Easy to read interface, nice data browser, good accessories and a battery included.
Cons: Should have bought the 256Mb version.

Awesome easy to read interface, including a few preset EQ settings, ability to use for data along with a nice data browsing interface. Nice package, easy to use, comes with decent ear buds, neck strap, carrying case and a battery !


Very clean, crisp sound.
