Now I know how to do "hold", there's NOTHING on the Clip+ to complain about. Well maybe "time remaining", and erm... no that's it... why buy a Shuffle when you can have a Clip, and for less?

That gives me 14G of music storage. One advantage of this approach is that I get three battery's worth of play. I'll consider a Clip + when one of my three players die. These things are all great. I also have a Rhapsody subscription at $40/quarter. This allows unlimited music listening for the price of 1 CD/month. How good is that? I have three of the original Clips.

I'm looking forward to handling the new version. Too bad they didn't take time to improve the design too... I was already very happy with the first version, except for the design.

It looks like they fixed that, anyway. I LOVE my Clip; apart from listening to music I use it to record college lectures and listen to the local football game on the radio. I even bought one for my mom to listen to her audiobooks on.

(While the marketing copy all says "microSD," fortunately the slot supports microSDHC.) If it hadn't, I'd have ruled this model out and kept looking. I've been happy with it. The sound is definitely better than the Sansa c240 that I'd been using--more oomph, more bass. While making the clip removable might be nice, it could get lost or broken, and the player is small enough that that's not a big deal for me. I tend to hook mine through a belt loop rather than on the belt itself; fortunately the player is light enough for that to work. I like this player for music, though for the long term I'll probably move podcasts to another device (with a touchscreen).

It means that for now the player can be expanded by 16GB making a 24GB player, and later it will have the ability to be expanded by 32GB making a micro 40GB player!

Being able to remove the clip on the first model was handy,and the backlit control buttons were also incredibly handy,especially at night of course. Very dull colours for this model too. I'll be sticking to the original. Great review though :) I have to say this appears to be a case of one step forward,and two steps back.

Mine is very light and sounds incredible. Lot better than a shuffle plus it has a screen and fm. I also love the speaker/wheel type center button!
