its different if u are having a rechargable batt tho...

well if you wanna use rechargeble batts...then its gonna be a little more expensive....

Well, compare it with a disc man. Bulkier, needs 2 AA batteries, prone to skipping, costs more, ~same battery life...

I use rechargables for them. Rayovac IC-3s....

Batts that'd prolly make CS5 squirm with joy...

We can get rechargeable batteries very cheaply here.

Rm 456????

(RM456=256MB Internal memory+Stopwatch+SD/MMC Sexpansion slot+Custom EQ Settings)

Damn should have bought the Rio instead of the A-Data-MP201 I got!

A-Data(RM680+128MB Internal memory+SD/MMC Sexpansion Slot=Damn I got ripped off!)

btw, does it have Japanese Text Support(Very Important For Me!) & how much are the sennheiser earbuds by it self?

Thanks,

TF

No, but it always bugs me when there aren't any J-Language support, the display will churn out weird characters(This happened on my "now dead" WeWa marvel mp3 player.)

Umm.. Do you really listen to that many Japanese songs?

You can always edit the ID3 tag...

But maybe PsY can test a Jap MP3 for you.
