iRiver

Tuesday, 23 September 2003

I broke down and bought an MP3 player. It was a little expensive, but I thought I would thoroughly enjoy it with all of the added perks. It has a line in jack, fm tuner, mp3 player, and voice recorder. I suppose the only downside is that it was quite difficult to get it working with Linux. But after a day of messing around, deciding what was okay, and eventually settling on an opensource “ifp” browser… I am happy. I want to use it to record messages at Church also. I took it in, and tested it out. Now I just have to teach the audio dudes how to get it to work.

Yeah, BestBuy wanted me to buy “insurance” for around $20.00. For two years I could bring it in and just get it replaced if it messed up. Well, I hope this baby lasts at least 2 years. It’s only 128mb, but I suppose that will be enough for a few songs, some voice recordings, and maybe even some FM recordings. The 256mb model was too expensive.

Oh… it’s an iRiver ifp-380t. Check it out!
