The mobiBlu DAH-1500i MP3 player promises a lot, and delivers most of it during it's very short life.

Do not buy this MP3 player, if:
a. you want an MP3 player that will last more than six months
b. you want technical support
c. you want warranty support
d. you want any support from the manufacturer

The one-man company mobiBluAmerica, went out of business. The Korean arm of mobiBlu also appears to have gone out of business.

We got the player and charged it up. There was no problem loading music onto it. However when we tried to listen to the radio station we usually listen to when out for walk we could not get it. Only one station would come in clearly where we normally could get dozens. We also had trouble switching from mp3's to FM and then put it into some mode we could not seem to get out of. Rather than fight with it we sent it back.

I own the 1Gig version and decided to buy the 2Gig version for a friend. My 1G cube had some kind of internal malfunction which required it being sent to Mobiblu Tech Support. They fixed it promptly and it has since performed flawlessly. The 2 gig model refused to load more the 1G of unprotected mp3's. I sent it in along with a detailed description of the problem. They returned it saying they had verified its function. It had the same problem, holding no more than 1G. Further attempts to contact them by email were not successful. I think they had their email filter ignore me. I will never buy another Mobiblu product even though I like my FUNCTIONAL cube. I was within the 30 day window, so Amazon took it back. Caveat Emptor!

I have owned my 2Gb MP3 for over two years now and have not had any problems. I use it mostly while flying from place to place and like its small size.

In all fairness I have never had to use customer service so have no idea what they are like. Also I am not a power user of this device. I use it a few times a month at best.

I've had mive for several years now.
Works great, sounds grea.

Works on XP and Vista

Because its so small with limited and multi-functional buttons it can take some skill
to get used to how it works.

People are still shocked by the size

I just cannot get this player to work with my PC. It keeps shutting down my video component (why? I don't know) or it freezes my PC up. I can't figure out how to get my PC to recognize the device. My PC meets all of their specifications and I followed all of their directions and even visited their website to review their support FAQs and customer blog. Nothing works so far.
Also, the player does not come with a finger-strap or an AC adapter as Amazon.com advertises as being "in the box".
