If it seems your MP3 player can do a lot more these days than just play tunes, it can. The Apple iPod can show colour picture slideshows, one of the Samsung players lets you read electronic books, and the Radio YourWay LX from PoGo! Products allows you listen to and record AM and FM radio broadcasts!
In the end, here's what we think:
Pros
- First AM/FM Recorder
- Line-in recording
- Expandable memory
Cons
- Limited internal memory
- Somewhat bulky
- So-so software
