The 4 gig costed $112aus and plays everything.
It ran perfectly on the mac and what i love the most about it is the fact that it isnt some tacky pc styled crap.
I cant believe the chinese made a great tech poduct!
It has more freedom than a ipod gives you and comes with radio and rec as well.
Theres an 8 gig on the way hear.

Who else here has one?

Sorry, but it still looks clumsy to use compared to an iPod. It looks nice and probably is nice to use in a non-iPod world.

That looks pretty cool - seems like the only think the nanos have that this doesn't is the scroll wheel...which Apple took out of the iPhone in favor of up-down scrolling on the touchscreen.

Really like the style of it, though!
For all the trash I talk, I sure own a lot of Macs...

It has a sliding panel like ipods, but up and down and not the patended circluar.
I think for $100US the 8 gig version is excellent, in the Apple world u dont get a big screen and freedom of file formats i.e DIVX, Real one, Ogg Vorbis, for that price, nor the file swapping and sharing of music freedoms. Its screen is much larger than a NANO's too.

I use a shuffle for my music and its only 1 gig, I used to have a 3rd gen 15 gig and found it was a waste and I never listened to the 7000 songs on it, I only listen to say 30 a anytime. I will use my meizu for everything else.
