Negative Positive
Title: Poor software and display
Review: I used this device almost daily for 2 months, then sold it for the following reasons. First, the SonicStage software never worked properly. I installed about 100 symphonies at one time without any difficulty, but on several different occasions, whenever I tried to add a single new symphony to the unit, the software could not find the 100 already installed even though they were all present according to the unit and any could be played. Each time this happened I was forced to re-initialize the hard drive, erasing the symphonies already on the unit and requiring that they all be added again. Second, the display has no backlight, making it almost impossible to see the display in daylight. I often had to cover the screen with my hand to see it. Another complaint (admittedly minor) is that, if I turned the unit off while it was playing a particular work and later turned it back on, the unit would resume playing that work. I regretted buying the unit and got an Ipod Nano instead.
Is the review positive or negative?
