Customer Rating: 4 Star
Summary: Very solid player 2010-06-02
Comment: I don't usually write reviews, but I thought this product deserved one- I was riding my bike recently, going downhill pretty fast, and the iRiver slipped out of my pocket onto the asphalt road, skidded probably over 10 meters, bouncing painfully along the way. Lo and behold, it was still playing when I picked it up, as if nothing extraordinary happened. Suffered a few scratches to the back surface but it seems fine otherwise. 5 stars for durability.
Customer Rating: 4 Star
Summary: Works great in Linux / survived a dunking in the toilet 2010-05-05
Comment: Some might argue those two qualities are the same. The player mounts in Linux when you set it up as an MSC device and you can drag and drop music. The biggest deal is that as of version 0.12.8 Rhythmbox can write playlists for the e100 that you can access from the e100. That's important because once you have a few gb of music on there it's a laborious process to move from song to song.

Updating the firmware is a bit of a hassle in Linux but it's possible ... for now.

Yeah the toilet. The player rates 5 stars for portability but now I would recommend an arm band. It slipped out of a back pocket and right into the toilet while it was on and playing out of its little speaker. It actually kept playing underwater for a few seconds, then something gave, bubbles started coming up and the music stopped. I fished it out after about 20 seconds. It kept making this pathetic choking sound out of the speaker. Attempts to turn it off failed. I dried it and wrapped it in toilet paper and figured that was its death shroud. It sat in there choking and sputtering for a day. Every time I tried to turn it off and put it out of its misery it just kept coughing. Eventually all was quiet. A few days later on a whim I turned it on, and it lived! I plugged it in, charged it up and it sounds just as good as it did. Oh yeah I cleaned it up too.

I'd give it 5 stars if the firmware update was easier and it was easier to navigate.

I haven't tried video on it but jpgs are nice.

Summary: Love it! 2010-04-14
Comment: I use it to record audio for my church with the line-in feature. After the service I download everything to my computer and edit the recording before putting on a CD or our web site. I should have gotten the 8 gig, becuase I have so many recordings still on here to share with people.
The voice recording isn't the best-most of mine have been distorted, so I don't even use that anymore. Otherwise, it is a great product.

Summary: OK Sound/Video, TERRIBLE navigation 2010-02-16
Comment: Pros:
sound and Video are pretty good.

Cons:
Navigation is clumsy, Laborious and loses it's position in the folder structure
when you use radio.
Video loses its space if you stop and power off. (Although you can add a bookmark)
Froze up on me twice (but rarely)
----
It's almost like creators couldn't be bothered about efficient usability. They
were lazy and gave it little thought.
This is my third Iriver and this one has lost it for me. I bought a Sony instead.

I gave it 3 stars because as much as i HATE this player, its core operation
is OK (Sound and Video) and some beople might not be worried too much about its bad
navigation. It's just my opinion.

Summary: A little confusing but it gets the job done. 2009-11-25
Comment: Overall I'm satisfied with it. I still don't know how to make a playlist. But I know how to play my songs. I haven't figured out how to make the mp3 player connect with the iriver software the player comes with. This provides a level of frustration for me, since I thought I would be able to organize my songs extensively. But I was the "informed consumer " so any dissatisfaction is my fault. For the most part I like it. Now would I recommend it? I don't know.
But its still simple enough understand how to preform its functions. I just have that one problem with trying to organize my music. It could just be me, but in end I am satisfied with my mp3 player.
