The best Windows based MP3 player?

Fri, 23 May 2003 01:18:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - As a Windows user, I sat on the fence a long time before buying an MP3 player. The small capacity units just didn't do it for me. The process of endlessly downloading and replacing songs didn't seem attractive.

Wed, 4 Sep 2002 18:48:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - I've been using PDAs almost since they first came on the market. I started with the Palm OS, toyed with Windows CE devices, and checked out the iPaq before opting for this gem from Sony.

Tue, 2 Jul 2002 00:19:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - Before even considering a front loading washer, you need to consider a very important issue - you're not buying a washing machine, you're making a long term *investment* in a new clothes cleaning system - seriously.

Mon, 1 Jul 2002 23:51:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - Crucial is simply outstanding. If there were ever a site to highlight how to do eCommerce right - this is it.

Thu, 2 May 2002 18:45:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - I own a 1999 Saab 9-3 5-door. This review is based on the 2002 9-3 SE loaner my dealer gave me for a few days while my car was being serviced.

Yawn.

Wed, 13 Mar 2002 17:23:45 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - Pitch Black is a sci-fi movie with a decent, if not typical storyline. A long-haul cryogenic space faring crew suddenly is thrown off their flight plan and end up crash landing on a barren planet. Only this planet is populated by vile creatues that...

Sun, 5 Aug 2001 15:59:17 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - Outpost.com originally was an also-ran in the online market place. They never had the best prices, and they often failed to carry common PC items and components. That all changed about a year ago when they emerged as a leader in the field. They...

Fri, 3 Aug 2001 06:24:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - After driving Jeep Grand Cherokees for over eight years, I became very tired of the bumpy and noisy ride. After taking my wife's Saab 9-3 to work a few days, I decided I'd get a luxury sports car once my Jeep lease expired.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Xorg - I acquired a new 2002 Acura TL Type S, and spend a great deal of time trying to figure out what to use to protect the finish. I do a lot of driving on rural highways and backroads, so my car tends to get very dusty and I wash it at least once a week...
