I got my player and it was easy to use right away. I had to charge the battery before loading it up with songs. It's not even close to full at 96 songs. The only problem is the battery only lasts for about 3 hours. It's not good for all day rocking out, but it's good for short listens. I got it to play music with a tape adapter in my car since I'm sick of dealing with CDs while driving. I used a portable cd player with a cassette adapter before. I would still buy it, but the battery really needs to last at least as long as 2 AAs.

I love the fact that this unit is so lightweight. I am glad that it comes with an easily programmed FM tuner so that I can listen to local content as well as my MP3s. I also am pleased with the Lanyard that comes with the MP6610FM. It has the earbud headphones built in so you don't have to worry about another cable dangling.

I use this when biking and once it's on, I don't even notice that something is around my neck. For this, it has been perfect.

My one complaint is that the unit uses a proprietary connector for the USB. I was expecting a simple USB-B connector (of which I have a number of cables). However, this one is different. I fear that if I lose it, I will not only be unable to put different music on the unit, but the device will no longer be usable because the MP6610FM recharges its battery through this USB port.

this little mp3 player is perfect for me and thats why i bought 2. the price is awesome and it holds about 240 songs which is good enough.

Nice little MP3 player for the money. I bought to take to the gym and found it easy to use, good sound. I don't care for the earbuds but they are inexpensively replaced. This is a great starter MP3 for those that don't want to spend $$.

and I should have caught that flaw myself but I'll point it out for anyone...I bought this for a friend in the hospital to have some music when they want....The drawback to that...you can only charge it through a computer. A USB port in a hospital isn't the easiest thing to find. If it had a cord to electrically charge it or I could do with just charging it through the USB I would give it five stars.

Certainly worth the money. Nifty little radio and intuitive menu layout. The battery could last a little longer though. It doesn't seem to be replaceable either (you charge it with a USB cable). I wish it came with a clip so you could put it on your sleve or something. The headphones are the same funky stupid ones that come with all cheaper MP3 players and they're just short enough that you can't put the player in your pocket while standing. What, do I just hold the thing while I jog?

But yeah, good deal, especially if you already have some decent headphones.

I bought this a few months ago for my 11 year old son for his birthday. He loves it! I like it so much, I am thinking about going back and buying one for my self. The sound is good, it is very easy to use. Also, since it was purchased for a kid, if it gets stolen or lost it isn't as big an investment as an Ipod. The only down side is that you have to charge it using the computer, which isn't a huge deal since we have the computer on a lot, but if we were traveling or something that would be a disadvantage. Other than that, it is great!

I've had this for a couple of weeks now, and it has been great.

Very easy to use, just plug it in and drag and drop music files into it. Deleting songs off of it is just as easy.

Did not need to install anything.

Very bright display, and easy to use menu system.

Pretty sturdy too. The very first day I had it I dropped it onto the pavement while walking to the bus. I picked it up, and it was still playing just fine, not even a scratch on it.

The only Con that comes to mind is that it takes a while to charge. And while it's charging you cannot listen to music. But I knew that before buying it, and for me thats not a big deal. So 5 stars.

Bought this item for daughters birthday. Quit working in less then 40 days. Sent back to audiovox for repair or replacement under 90 day warantee. Recieved confirmation they recieved it. 2 1/2 months and nothing. Do not recommend buying due to unreliability of product and company.

approx.1 month later now and several calls to the company. No results in getting it back. Company making all sorts of excuses to why they haven't done anything with it (lost it. Send it to the wrong place for repair. Busy time so be patient[if they are that busy reparing their products then that tells me they sell a lot of junk]. Etc.) Will never buy anything from Audiovox again. I take back the 2 stars I gave it and rate it and the company at 0 stars

Now January 14, 2008. Audiovox won't answer their phone anymore. All I have got for 2 months is a busy signal on their 800 number. Still don't have it back and don't except to. Now I have a feeling I know where the used ones come from they sell. If you read this review "buyer beware". Even seller can't get them to give an answer to why.

Ok, I'm going to start off with the GOOD things first...excellent amount of space for the price...radio on it...etc. Bad things...it stops working like 4 months into using it. Yeah, so this is my SECOND mp3 player this year...I'm actually thinking about getting a good ole' fashion disk player to save myself the money.

Simply put, you get what you pay for.
