But with 4GB and 8GB flash players now common, they've had to up the ante. MP3 Players http://www.reviewgrounds.com/technology/mp3-players/creative-zen-32gb.htm http://www.reviewgrounds.com/technology/mp3-players/creative-zen-32gb.htm Mon, 14 Jul 2008 04:13:00 +0000 Since the flash-based Creative Zen came out at the end of last year it's been an appealing alternative to the iPod nano. And with the arrival of this huge, limited-edition 32GB version the range is expanding into the high-capacity market, formerly dominated by hard disk devices such as the iPod Classic, Creative's own now-defunct Zen...

The black brushed-metal back is as resilient as it is attractive, and the glossy screen is wonderfully vivid.

Most have failed dismally, but the Meizu MiniPlayer SL from Chinese manufacturer Danelec actually makes a pretty good fist of it.

There's no longer any such thing as a straight iPod - what would be referred to as the 6th-generation iPod is now the iPod classic. The nano has undergone major surgery as well, and even the humble iPod shuffle has had a slight...

Both have 3.5in 480 x 320 touchscreens. Both run a touchscreen version of OS X, offering apps such as the Safari web browser and a YouTube video viewer. Both units use flash memory for storage, with the touch available with either 8GB or 16GB.

Perfect for exercise, they're smaller than a box of matches, they keep your playlists fresh and unexpected, and they're light enough to strap to an arm for the ultimate in portability. MP3 Players http://www.reviewgrounds.com/technology/mp3-players/terratec-noxon-2-radio-for-ipod.htm http://www.reviewgrounds.com/technology/mp3-players/terratec-noxon-2-radio-for-ipod.htm Mon, 14 Jul 2008 04:05:00 +0000 Another feature which has been a long time coming is the 2.1 speaker base, which sits underneath the main unit and draws its power from the Noxon. Audio quality is impressive in small to medium-size rooms, although bass response isn't exceptional and as the front speakers are so close together, the stereo effect is lost.
