This flash mp3 player has a compact & stylish design & direct USB makes it very convenient for music storage. It can also function as data storage.

What I like about this player is that you can recharge it simply by connecting it to your PC usb slot and takes only a few minutes depending on the remaining power. There’s no need to change the battery. A fully charge battery can last me up to a week

The player comes with a Sonic stage software, which is used to transfer music from your PC in order for the mp3 file to be played. It also have FM tuner if you want to listen to radio broadcast.

Overall the sound quality is excellent depends on your MP3 quality of course. I would recommend using quality headphone to get the most of the sound quality. You can also customize its equalizer settings, you can set 7 levels for each five band.

I found out that I am unable to sort the song order according to my liking which is common to flash type player. The songs are listed according to alphabetical order. You can sort the songs by artist or album.

It comes in 6 different colors and for 512mb, the price is USD 69.95 (RM299).

Metal music


Rhapsody, an Italian metal band have released a new album ‘Triumph or Agony’ in September 2006.

In my opinion, this album is quite good though most of the tracks are of mid tempo. It carries on the style from their previous album “Symphony of Enchanted Lands part 2”. Rhapsody are known for speed metal and catchy melodies but for this album it lacks both. It’s more on orchestration rather than guitar works. My favorite tracks are Triumph or Agony, Heart of the Darklands and Silent Dream. Fabio Vocals are excellent in this album.

Their 1997 debut album, "Legendary Tales" caused an international sensation in the metal community. Its follow up, "Symphony Of Enchanted Lands" went even further catapulting the band into the charts in several territories including Germany where it entered at #54. Aside from having achieved sales so far in excess of 250,000 albums, the band are still trying to develop their sound further by incorporating new ideas whilst still remaining true to their primary influences associated with the music of the cinema.

If you’re new to this band, I would recommend their 1988 album, Symphony Of Enchanted Lands. You will get an idea of what their music is about. Find out more at www.mightyrhapsody.com
