You can get a real iPod Mini killer for only about $15.

two things.

i saw fuzzy tiny pics of it and it looked pretty nice















thanks for the pic link .. actually being able to see details help me realize how ugly it would be. it's not sleek and clean .. but has big lines in it .. and parts that stick out ..


color screens are fantastic .. and i sometimes get annoyed at some ipod fanboys (yes .. i own one too) who criticize competitors just because they are not ipods. but in this case .. i agree... i had a 1.5inch lcd in a old camera and it was easy to frame shots in .. but not the best when used to read lots of information (menu's and songs) at a mere glance. the text is shrunk down a lot ... so on this player .. you wont be able to see the display clearly at a glance while jogging or some activity where you move vigorously .. cant believe i just used that word..


anyways .. bleh .. i'm disapointed in this one .. i expected it to be better.
