Summary: Come on Iriver..... 2005-08-21
Comment: This is by far the worst 185.00 I've ever spent! This little gadget is not all its cracked up to be. It has lots of features, but thats about the only thing its got going for it. Even though it has all of these features, they are so hard to use. Not only that, if you wanted to transfer songs to it, you can, but if you then wanted to upload them on another computer, you cant. Not only that, when you try to download songs onto it, it occasionally freezes up. Please get a rio instead of Iriver. I wish I would have. The forge is so much better!

Summary: Almost Perfect for my needs 2005-08-02
Comment: I spent a long time researching mp3 players before purchasing one. I needed multiple capabilities: internal microphone for voice recording, fm receiver/recorder, data storage, and, absolutely most important, line-in recording. This player is the whole package (with the slight problem that data storage requires a firmware alteration).
There are a few minor setbacks with this device:
1 - You cannot upload mp3s from your player to a computer without first tweaking the firmware or renaming the file. Why bother with such ridiculous attempts to "prevent piracy", especially if so easily overcome?
2 - The software that comes with it is also limited and somewhat clunky. Transferring files from cpu to player was frustrating at first, because the player organizes the files in the same order that they are transferred, which was alphabetical until I changed my ripping software's file naming conventions to include track numbers. Why not enable id3 tags?
Of course, these complaints are minor, and once I was aware of these limitations, I quickly altered my usage of the player to alleviate the aggravation. The microphone quality is good, the volume, sound fidelity, and line-in recording capabilities are outstanding, the color screen is nice (although it probably adds $50 to the price unnecessarily), the rechargable battery is fantastic in terms of both life and recharge time, the kbps settings for recording are customizable...in short, the device is great, nearly perfect, and, depending on durability (it's only been a month), will be in use for several years.
Bravo to iriver, I'm sure their future products will be top of the line.
Also, check out misticriver (.com) for an amazing amount of info about this and other iriver players.

Summary: Excellent Little Player 2005-07-07
Comment: Small compact player with FM Tuner. I attended a convention recently where the program was broadcast on an FM channel. I was able to record the program without any problems. This player has met all of my expectations.

Summary: Impressive but not perfect 2005-05-11
Comment: Well I've been using an iRiver 256mb for a couple of years now and decided to upgrade.
This is a great device I got it set up quickly and the battery was already fully charged when it arrived which was a nice plus.
The sound on this is great I loved my 256 but the sound had to be all the way up at times to hear stuff when on public transit to and from work. No so with this baby I had it at half the volume I used to use and it sounds clear and fantastic.
What was also nice is the earbuds, everyones ears are different so this may not apply to you but I find mine extremely comfortable. I had just bought a new set by Sony two-three weeks ago and they hurt my ears badly but these fit perfectly!
Since I'm already a devoted iRiver user the software setup was no big deal and I like the updates to the Music Manager.
I don't have a USB 2 so I can't tell you how fast it is but it isn't any slower than my original iRiver so that's just fine with me.
Also I'm not having any issues with the buttons getting pressed as another reveiwer has. But I have the protective cover they include over my player so maybe that helps?
Ok there is one glitch to this thing that is making me nuts. When the power is running low you cannot do anything; you cannot turn the volume down, move to other tracks and the screen will not lightup, you can't even turn the damn thing off..you have to just let it run all the way down.
That is very annoying and I hope that is something they can fix in future models.

Summary: great player, but with a few quirks 2005-04-24
Comment: First off, this mp3 player produces the best sound I have ever heard. It is better than ipods, the iriver h-340, and the samsung yp-mt6; I know because I have owned all of them. The ifp-999 blows all of them away by miles. And it is VERY loud!
Now for the quirks. The buttons on the side are great in theory, but they suck in practice. I'd much rather have them recessed, so they didn't get accidently hit all the time. Next, the headphone jack and the hold button are right next to each other. Bad design. Nearly every time I try to move the hold button (and you have to use it constantly, because if you don't, you activate whatever button you accidently hit) I first have to twist the earphone plug out of the way. It gets a little maddening after a while.
And last of my complaints is that darned iriver menu structure. I was hoping it would be virtually identical to the menu structure on the h-340, but they have more differences than similarities. It looks like it'll take me another month to figure it out. Why do things like this need to be so difficult?
Despite these problems, This player still rocks, big time. Oh, and the rechargable battery is awesome. All in all, a very nice player.
