where are the side by side pics to the nano and shuffle?!

Plus that thing looks like it is made so cheap. black text on blue background. And i am sure their headphones are the same quality as headphones you can buy at a 99cent store. =)

Ouch... it must hurt to be dell.

Spend a couple months coming up with a decent shuffle competitor, only to be beaten to market by the nano, which while not a direct competitor, is pretty stiff competition. (color lcd, 4 times the disk space, ipod brand for only $100 more)

dell always exaggerates their products. when i was at dell i wold tell people. Look the website sais it holds x number of songs, but that is only true if all your songs are the length of beetles songs. Lol that always got a laugh.

but my hell days, err i mean dell days are over. =) were is it on dell.com btw i went to their mp3 players section and they still have their pathetic mp3 players there, no mention of this piece of crap.

How good is FM reception in these run-of-the-mill mp3 players? Anyone?

Does Dell just have a design department that excels in making everything clunky and ugly?

This thread is as lame as the DJ Sh!tty, and it's even lamer than that iPod Nano thread started by Amsal.

Darn if only I'd waited and got one of these instead of my Nano.

Come on guys. What's better than an MP3 player than one that you can get FM! Listen to all your favorite music AND commercials!

You have got to be joking. That is soooooo ugly.

I bought my second ipod. It was the nano ipod, not the ugly stick from Dell. Damn, you can't be for real.

Nano iPod = 4 Gigs, color display, iTune Compatible, plus more.

Dell DJ Ditty = 512mb, black & white itty bitty ditty screen, Napster compatible. Blaaaahhhhh!!!!!


There ain't no comparison.

Ditty looses.

I wouldn't be suprised if Apple sells more nano iPods in one week then Dell sells Ditty's in the whole productioin run.

DJ Ditty

Why can't Sean Combs just make up his mind about his name already?

Oh.... it's some sort of MP3 player from Dell.

Snore...

Talk about stretching specs! 220 songs in 512K? Good luck with that. Might not be able to tell the quality difference between an MP3 and a radio station that isn't quite coming through.
