PROS:
light. compact. handy. supports major music and picture formats. good sound quality. expandable memory. cheap
CONS:
plastic casing (very prone to scratches/hairlines). video needs conversion (available in cd installer). not much options for integrating external data to built in memory.
overall i would recommend this player to people who need functionality at budget price. price here in the philippines would not go higher than 10k (though i bought mine for 11k since it's a new model then). i've been using mine for more than a year now and it hasn't failed me since then. :)
OVERALL RATING: 9 out of 10

just to let you know, i spent an hour trying to overlap that RSS image link with the header image because they are two independent widgets. what a pain in the neck, seriously. it's not like it's that easy! hah, you try.

TH
watermarks are only for celebrities, photographers and stock-quality photos.
i don't mean to ridicule/offend/discriminate but i find it funny that ordinary people would watermark their photos as if they're steal-worthy. as if.
first of all, it's a big waste of time photoshopping each of the photos.
and worst of all, by the end the day it'll be disappointing to know that no one actually stole it.
save the stamps when you're already hitting it big time.
K?
