Title: Lightweight Player, but flimsy, poorly designed - pain in *
Product review: I own an iPod. I love it, but I don't like to take it running, too heavy, and if I drop it, oh no! So I bought this hunk of red plastic. It is definitely lightweight. But the buttons activate at the slightest touch, on a Windows machine it randomly connects via the USB cable or doesn't. It *DOES* work with iTunes, but only if you convert your songs to MP3 or WMA (which you cannot do with purchased music - protected AAC). The little carry case that comes with it *SEEMS* like a good idea. However, it's nearly impossible to remove it (I am afraid of tearing the player in half doing so), and it's so poorly desgined that I can't really push the buttons while it's in the case. AND, if I don't use the case, the battery/storage cover keeps falling off. Don't waste your money. If you can afford the iPod mini - go for it. Otherwise look elsewhere for your lightweight and compact sport digital music player.
