I don't understand circles, sor-ry.


Also, did they mention how you would transfer songs to the SD card? Would you need a reader or will the player hook up to your preskool typewriter?

I'm not a hardcore environmentalist, but it always bothers me when I see a new, completely unnecessary, disposable product. Like when aluminum foil companies put out commercials suggesting you line your pans with their product so you'd never have to do dishes again. Or people who buy disposable Gladware instead of reusable Rubbermaid.

I know someone probably said the same thing when they came out with disposable diapers, but Jesus Christ, disposable Ipods?

So the sound quality really sucks or they break easily or what?

What makes these things disposable as opposed to just really cheap electronics?

Pipe it hippie, the future waits for no one.

Until, of course, the future gets crushed by a pile of its own detrius.

maybe they just break really easy. I know a few people that have already thrown out half a dozen nanos

I actually reuse my Gladware.

It doesn't sound disposable really. You can change the battery and keep on using it like you would anything else. So, unless it breaks really easily, I'd say it's really cool

Use rechargeable batteries

i know, seriously they could make a cheap one with a lith-ion battery and a friggen solar cell on it, use geranium crystal earbuds and the power would last forever. put a crappy 500 meg chip in it, and thats 200 songs, its not a lot, but thats about 10 hours of mp3.
and no matter how cheaply it's built, can it be as bad as the nano?!

What's this SD Card you speak of?

You can throw yours away, I'm keeping mine.

I like cds! Still! I would like a new media device, but more chip based. Buy a chip of your favorite band! YOu could hook those up in vending machines, no need for the retailer. Disposable mp3s does sound kind of dumb, but hey I can see a Mcdonalds "value" meal costing that much eventually so whatever floats your nuclear submarine.

I've got some I've had for years.

CoolTechZone needs to look into their coding practices... Full database error messaging is a development toy, that stuff shouldn't make it into production.
