Features Of Ipod Nano And Similar Flash Based Portable Multimedia Players

YES" YMP45 is a neat PMP, made attractive by a strip of red plastic that runs around

the screen and and adds a touch of pizzazz to a rather ordinary black body. Matashi"s MWI "" 4GA has a chrome finished posterior, but it seems to be plastic and not metal. Although the player is attractive, the built quality is mediocre and the tackiness of the buttons is unacceptable. Creative Zen is a plain looker with a black glossy front and the matte "" finished rear that"s been molded to look like ripples in water after a splash. Note that the Zen has a large""ish screen, and is targeted at video aficionados. Cowon"s iAudio 7 is another neat looker - very compact and very well built. The screen isn"t as good as some of the other players, particularly the Samsung models, the iPod Nano, the Sansa E280 and the iRiver X20 (the i"s are possibly copy of the iPod Nano, iPod Touch, iPod Classic etc. as they are the best selling Portable Multimedia Players, other companies are coping the "i" hoping to sell as the iPods )

The Sansa E280 has all the features you need "" music ,photo and video support, FM radio, text support and even expandability (should 8 GB not suffice). The iPod Nano has most of these features (excluding FM radio and Expandability - - FM radio was added in the present iPod Nano so currently expandability is the only missing feature which is a very important feature) and the addition of nifty features like a stopwatch, alarm, calendar and contacts make iPod Nano a superbly converged device . Unlike older iPod Nano, the present generation of iPod Nano"s can be used as a pen drive also when you can store files other than music and videos. Both Samsung Portable Multimedia Players also have Bluetooth support, which can be used to transfer music to (but not from) other devices "" that"s taking anti-piracy nuttiness to the limit, in my option.

Sony"s NWZ-615F also impressed me with its features list, the only thing missing is expandability (again :( :( ). Bluetooth is a feature which is exclusive to Samsung Portable Multimedia Players only.
