5.0 out of 5 stars The PMP I always was looking for!, April 15, 2008

This review is from: ibiza Rhapsody H1B004BK 4 GB Wi-Fi/MP3 Player by Haier (Black) (Electronics)

I received the Flash player yesterday.
And I must say... meez likes.

Very light, big screen, nice graphics, no antennae piece on the back or bluetooth like the harddrive version.

The sound quality is very good. I hooked it to my 'real' Vibes and was most impressed. I have had a few players and this definitely has to be the best of the bunch as far as ease of use. It's definitely a must for any one with Rhapsody. I just can't believe it took this long for something like this to come around!

This review is from: ibiza Rhapsody H1B004P 4 GB Wi-Fi/MP3 Player by Haier (Pink) (Electronics)

Unfortunately, the company which developed and made and sold these things (Haier) got out of the business a year ago, and all official support for Ibiza Rhapsody seems to have ceased 12/31/2009. So if you have tech support issues, or the embedded web browser isn't good enough for you, you may not have a good time with this. (For example, mine shipped without the firmware which included the Equalizer and support for Internet Radio stations. I was still able to download the necessary firmware over WiFi on Sept 23 2010, so their home servers are still feeding out firmware updates, but who knows for how long??)

But it's an unbelieveably awesome little toy for $39: portable MP3/AAC/WMA music player; video; WiFi for Internet radio (with the latest firmware upgrade); FM radio; "minimo" web browser for mobile-oriented websites: all of that without even being a Rhapsody subscriber.

If you ARE a Rhapsody subscriber, this thing is a no-brainer. Rhapsody has taken away the ability to download "subscription" songs directly over WiFi, previously offered in their "Rhapsody to Go" service, but Rhapsody "Premier" and "Premier Plus" subscribers can still stuff this portable with subscription downloads by attaching it to a Rhapsody-authorized desktop running Rhapsody Version 4 software, and walk around with 4GB of rented music. And subscribers can also still stream Rhapsody directly over WiFi (but that will probably eat away at battery life).

As long as you can grab that all-important, last-ever firmware update, which includes the (frankly essential) audio equalizer, this is easily worth $39. Might be a little wide if you have tiny hands.

(One note: I ordered the pink from TigerDirect via Amazon marketplace, and got the purple model. Looks like a screwup on Amazon's part with the model numbers, but still... FYI if you have your heart set on pink.)

This review is from: ibiza Rhapsody H1B004BL 4 GB Wi-Fi/MP3 Player by Haier (Blue) (Electronics)

I love this WiFi/Mp3 player. I use it mostly for WiFi. I am 72 yrs old and do not need 10,000 apps. I visit ESPN, AMAZON, MSN, Facebook, and GMAIL. It is easy to use and never gives me trouble. The "ribbon" keyboard takes a little practice but works fine. I slowed down the touchscreen response to match my slowed down reflexes. I am so pleased with this item that I recently ordered a second one. Get one while you can.
