    Sansa Clip Zip: A value iPod alternative

    Posted January 28, 2012 - 9:00 am

    When it comes to small MP3 players, the iPod Shuffle and iPod Nano are tough acts to follow. The SanDisk Sansa Clip Zip is neither as petite nor as stylish, but it has features in spades: an FM radio, a voice recorder, a workout timer, and a microSD card slot for adding more storage--and all for a very modest price, making it well worth considering if you're on a tight budget.

    First look: iRiver Spinn multimedia player

    Posted October 13, 2008 - 4:18 pm

    The beautiful, fashion-conscious iRiver Spinn is the upscale lounge down the street from the Slacker G2's likable-but-slightly-sketchy dive bar. What the Slacker offers in happy-hour specials (free drinks music!), the Spinn more than matches in elegance, style, and sheer sexiness. But it also has quite a bit of substance lurking beneath all that style--if you can get past the bouncers (in this case, the sometimes unintuitive controls and the high cover charge).

    First look: iPod touch

    Posted September 11, 2008 - 10:03 am

    With the second go-round of the iPod touch -- introduced Tuesday as part of Apple's annual fall iPod line overhaul -- Apple takes another step in the right direction by adding two desirable physical features: external volume controls and an internal speaker. Along the way, the company also slimmed down the case and rounded the iPod touch's edges (like the iPhone 3G). The price for the iPod touch has been slimmed down as well.
