Coby just alright [Posted on 2007-11-01]
The Coby MP-C7097 is small, inexpensive, and works. Operation is confusing and built in speakers are not very good - as might be expected.
4 Stars for what you'd expect [Posted on 2007-11-04]
The MPC7097 is an extraordinary mp3 player for the price. I am sure that I could have gotten something much better for a lot more money but to tell you the truth, I am rather impressed, more so than disappointed.
Pros: The price is unbelievable. There is absolutely everything that I would want in an MP3 player stuffed into this thing. They did a nice job of making the default ear buds also be the neck strap. Video isn't bad (screen is small but hey, it is video!) and it does come with very easy to use video formating that converts anything that I have put into it thus far. It supports pictures, ebook files, various sound files, has radio and various ways to record different things, and can ultimately be used just as a USB drive. THE MEMORY IS FLASH NOT HARD DRIVE!!!
Cons: Well it is cheap so you can't expect everything to be perfect. I didn't like the way the software lined up. It felt really choppy and minute-made. The internal speakers, although a nice touch, are hard to hear. The buttons seem hard to press or at least press so that the player knows you are pressing the buttons. The plastic flap that covered the USB hole fell right off as soon as I opened the box. The player is much smaller than it really seems (this might be a pro for some of you, but I like bigger players). The sound (maybe it is just the ear buds) is all in the treble. There is virtually no bass at all. I have to press a button 3 times before it responds when it shuts off the screen after 2 minutes to conserve battery life. I also found it difficult to understand how to use a lot of what was given to me on the player.
All of the cons to me aren't all that bad for the player. But there they are. Video MP3 players and iPods all seem way to expensive ESPECIALLY when compared to this baby. I think I made the right choice.

A Good Exposure MP3 Recorder [Posted on 2008-04-11]
This is my 1st exposure to the world of MP3. There are so few FM radio recorders to choose from so I purchased the lowest costing one. I am hooked on the benefits over casettee and CD's for listening and recording lectures. However, a month later I am searching for something that works 2 times in a row, the same way. There are so many anomalies I can't list them all.
It does record voices in a room but only mine is loud enough to distinguish.
The output volume to an external amplifier is far far to low of voltage.
It has an inactivity timer of 10 minutes but I would rather have a sleep timer of 30 minutes.
The ear phones are sized for a horse and useful only for an FM antenna.
The battery indicator never gets to 1/2 before the recorder goes dark and you loose the voice recorder. Therefore, you are safe for about 2 hours after charging.
It has an audio equlizer but I can't hear the difference using the built in speaker with my FM lecture recordings.
It decides to go into repeat mode at will.
The select knob has 3 functions. It does 1 thing if you bump it for 0.10 sec., another at 0.50 sec., and another at 2.00 sec. you are never sure what is going to happen.
You do have to force ON the display 100%. Forget about battery life--you want it to record without shutting itself OFF.
I need to record a 3 day convention in July. This is April. I would not trust this recorder battery wise for the job at this point. I'll need to find a 2nd FM recorder soon.
