I just bought one and i’m using it for the first time now. Its garbage. The headphone jack is wonky. You have to fiddle with the angle of the jack once its in there for to connect so that it plays full undistorted sound. Also the sound quality is noticeably worse than what the computer came with. In fact its about the same as a Creative Labs Mp3 player I bought around the time the first iPod came out. Also the software took a very long time to install, and then so did the updates. This thing is a POS. Stay away.
Nifty little product. Just got one in the US and its cool if you don’t have an ExpressCard slot for their other laptop audio upgrade option. Cards you plug into your desktop will always have more power. But for something portable this is a decent option. I picked one up in the US from Creative’s site for just $49 $5 shipping after waiting for it to be released there after Asia had it for a while.
