3.0 out of 5 stars Sleek, but has some issues, August 18, 2008

By	J. Hancock (Richmond, VA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Wonderful design! Very easy to use, and has a reset button, which I used within a few weeks of purchase to reset it because it froze. The other mp3 players I've owned didn't have this feature, and once they froze, I had to return them. My main gripe with this product is that the shuffle function SUCKS. It repeats many many songs during a shuffle and leaves others out of the mix entirely. It hasn't been very friendly to my wma files, either. Some will play, some won't. It has a long battery life. It also fits in the Ipod nano "socks" which you need to protect the silver mirror-like backing on the player, or it will scratch.

3.0 out of 5 stars Need more memory, July 17, 2008

A Kid's Review

This is a great product but needs more memory, I loaded about 300 songs and didn't have enough space to download a movie. "Phillips" it shouldn't take much to add a port for a memory stick or other type of memory card. Overall the software is easy to manage and the system is friendly user. Just remember you can have both music and movies, not enough memory. So you will have to do one or the other.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive and Useful, February 5, 2009

By	Mr. Italiano "C.Lo." (CT, USA) - See all my reviews

I recently received the SA6145, and I absolutely love it. I used WMP to transfer my music library - simple drag and drop. I copied my pictures from my folder and dropped them in as well, too. I haven't added any video, but the sample looks great - especially for something that fits in your coat pocket. I am using it right now and tried out the Equalizer...it totally made a difference. Play a song and change it in the middle of a song...

My pictures look awesome, and it is really fun to take out the GoGear and share pictures with people when I'm out and about.

I had some problems with songs not playing, but that had nothing to do with the player, but rather because the songs are copyright protected. There are ways around this I guess on the internet.

All in all, I am very pleased with this item.
