HOT!!!! This thing is great! I've loved iriver since their start before ipods, and they still stay strong. The batt life on this thing is decent for a video player and the screen is well big enough as well as really clear. The audio quality for mp3s is still unmatched, and is one of the only brands that makes good use of high quality encoding. If I had the money I'd go for this cuz this is a great price.

I'm seriously considering pulling the trigger on this one. I don't think it will be any cheaper any time soon.

IF I didn't buy a car two weeks ago I would jump on this without even thinking. This is an insane deal, I've owned my iRiver first gen mp3 player for several years, and it's held up great. I've taken it snowboarding at least 15 times (lots of bad spills off of jumps), biking a lot, work out with it daily, and listen to it while I roast on the beach. It's still in one piece, and that says a lot after some of my snowboarding spills and all the sand that's probably inside of it now.

Ya... If I didn't have an h120 already, or have to pay for college I'd grab this. Still really considering it even though I don't "technically" need it.

Before buying this player, you should check out the following forum:

MysticRiver

I've had the 20GB version for about 6 months now (PMP-120). It's definitely got issues, so depending on what your priorities are, this player might not be for you. Personally, I only find the video functionality worth using. I think the MP3/WMA playback is buggy and frustrating. The FM tuner is pretty worthless. Just my 2 cents.
