Awesom product. Battery is removable which is great. The price was great, I got quite a bargain. It does everything music, videos, text, fm tuner, recording, dictionary, plus more. The srs wow sound effects is the icing on the cake!! Worth your every penny!

I bought this player since I like to put my movies into media player so that I can watch them whenever I want to and I am also very interested in such state-of-art technology. The player surprised me a lot because 1. very clear (like digital effect)video display. ( I converted video into 400X230 resolution); 2. very loud built-in speaker; 3. there is a resume function and you can watch your video right from where you stopped if you couldn't finish watching it. 4. remote control is plus so that you can watch your movies on your TV and still can remotely control. Anyway, I have not found any setback for this media player and it is the best one that I have ever used. I love it so much and it can be used as an electronic dictionary too.

The only thing that bugs me is there is really no "how to" or support for the units. Once you figure it out, look out!, they are better then the ipod or zune. It's just the learning curve that bugs me.

I also have a Coby 20G MP3 player that I have dropped several times and the case is the only thing holding it together as the screws broke off when I dropped it on the cement floor and it works like a charm. LOVE IT!

Thanks.

I received it opened it got the CD out Place it in my PC and it looked as if it would work and you go into a subfolder of this CD and boom it's corrupt it Lags up your Computer and you have to eject it to stop it from behaving the way it was. I need this CD Now and It look's like coby dosen't care about this failure of a product or any of it's products at all. but the hardware was all good it ran great it's just that i formated it because it was acting funny i have to have this CD a -clean copy- so i can use it to recover this PMP a message pops up for the recovery CD and to connect it to the PC to reinstall the required files from this CD. :(

....Coby does not support this player anymore..Consistant lock ups and non sync vid audio....Used the stylus over 3 times in 10 mins to anti freeze this device.
The only thing good about it was the detachable battery..If coby had stuck to this product and improved the firmware,they would have ruled this market..Seems like they bit off the "Apple" Ipod and built in battery disposables continues...

If you have Windows Vista, avoid this product because it will not work. Both the CD ROM and the instruction manual are not helpful, as they are not based on a Vista operating system. This past Monday (2/22/10) I tried contacting Coby via e-mail to troubleshoot my issues with using this thing, and so far almost three days have passed and no response. It turned into e-mail hell with the seller I bought this from while they were trying to provide troubleshooting instructions, but the recommendations the seller made were based on the instruction manual (as I already said, the instruction manual does not help if you have Windows Vista). If you have Vista, save your money and look for another media player.

If something magically happens and it starts working with Vista, I'll update my review and my 1 star rating.
