Amazon.com Product Description
Small enough to fit in the palm of your hand but loaded with features, the Coby MP-C858 MP3 player lets you listen to your favorite tunes on the bus, at the park, and just about anywhere else. The device measures a mere 3.98 by 1.25 by 0.85 inches (W x H x D), with a removable end cap that reveals a direct USB plug for connecting to a computer (no cable required). More significantly, the MP-C858 offers 512 MB of integrated flash memory, so you can store roughly eight hours of MP3 music or 16 hours of WMA music--more than enough for a marathon training run or a cross-country flight. And for those occasions when you need to transport data rather than music, the MP- C858 can handle that, too, with the ability to store JPEG photos, text documents, and more. The mobile storage function is ideal for transporting business documents across the country or serving as an overflow backup for your digital camera's memory card. It's easy to navigate through the audio player's contents thanks to the seven-color LCD display, which displays the song title and artist information. And as with the best MP3 players, the MP-C858 offers a number of handy extras, such as a built-in digital FM tuner, a digital voice recorder with an integrated microphone, and several preset EQ settings (normal, classic, rock, jazz, and pop). The MP-C858, which runs on a single AAA battery (included), works with Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, and XP and Mac OS X operating systems and carries a 90-day warranty. What's in the Box
MP3 player, earphones with neck strap, USB extension cable, installation CD, user's manual.

Summary: Don't Buy 2008-02-19
Comment: This MP3 player will work well for a while (except for headphones which will suck from the very beginning). But after a while it won't turn on and there won't be anything you can do about it. This happened to me, and the same thing happened to a friend who warned me about the problem a little too late. Coby customer service is also bad, and returning it wasn't an option for me as the warranty is up after just 90 days. Maybe they don't expect it to last much longer than that, or maybe they just hope it won't malfunction before then. Either way, the length of the warranty isn't that good a sign. I give it one star because Amazon won't seem to let me give it none.

Summary: Great Disappointment 2007-03-20
Comment: I am very unhappy with the Coby mp-c858.
The "thumb-toggle" control for navigation is almost counter-intuitive. The "press/push" combination has very little feedback feel. That makes it difficult to switch between the various modes of operation or fast forward/rewind through a track.
Even worse, it is hard to get files downloaded properly. I copied files to the unit and they would show up on Windows Explorer. When I tried to play them back, the unit wouldn't recognize they were there.
Some of these difficulties may be operator error. If the available documentation wasn't so sparse and imprecise, I might be able to tell for sure if the problems of using this are mine or the player's.
The FM Radio does work, though again, it's challenging to navigate. Likewise the voice recorder.
It looks like this is going to be just an overpriced memory stick for me.

Summary: Built With Poor Quality 2007-02-05
Comment: The good things about this MP3 Player include that it was easy to plug into my computer, because it has a USB port without a cable. And it was very easy to use Windows Media Player to download and view the content in the player. However, this player hardly worked at all for me. The first day I had it, I put four songs on it, and they sounded good and seemed to play well and easily. By the next day, the toggle didn't work. It was a button that scrolled through songs one by one when you moved it right or left. And you push it in to choose your selection. Thats a lot of work to put on a little and button, and by day 2, it didnt work. I couldnt play anything but the first song. And I could only choose a setting selection the first 15 seconds after the player was turned on. I called the company and described the problem. They told me to return it. When I had first opened the package, there was a flyer that said, Wait! Dont return this! Call our helpline first! That should have been my first clue that they've had problems with this product. Oh, the FM radio didnt work very well, either. Listening to a favorite strong channel, where I usually have no problems with reception, I could hear a second channel of music on top of it. I bought this exact model of player at Fred Meyer for $58 + tax. I see that its much cheaper on Amazon. When I took it back, the woman at Fred Meyer said, I hate to tell you this, but watch out for Coby. So, apparently, they dont have a good reputation.
