Title: i-platinum Junior
Post by: ha-Y-n on December 09, 2006, 03:12:48 am: Happy Holidays everyone,

I need some help on purchasing something. My wife found this mp4 player on the net and wants to buy it. I thought it was kind of weird that I couldn't find it @ best buy or amazon. So I guess my question is have any of you ever heard of this device? If so is it any good?

thanx

Well it uses a standard file formats so that's a start.

One thing it lacks over other players is accessories support. You won't get all the fancy stuff you'll see compatible with Zune or Ipod. Plus the drive space is pretty small. That wouldn't matter much for music or pictures, but it'll matter for video.

I have a feeling it probably doesn't have a pretty software interface, either. Getting files onto it might be completely manual (though I can't really say for sure).

If those things don't bother, it's probably a good device. The price is certainly hard to argue with.

Scam how? Like it doesn't really exist? A quick search finds a whole bunch of different versions of that thing. That's some massive colaberation for a scam.
