iriver E100 is now for sale, still kind of chubby

We weren't terribly impressed by the iriver E100's size or functionality, but at $110 for a 4GB player with this size of screen, it's certainly hard to complain. For $50 more you can get an 8GB player, and both sizes come in pink, black, blue and brown and white flavors. You can pick it up now at Amazon.com or J&R, and we're sure other online retailers will be quick to jump on board.

[Thanks, KC]

Can we have some kind of "Barbie (TM) Alert" prior to something quite so PINK being displayed.

Or better still, NO MORE BLOODY PINK GADGETS!

[Evan @ Apr 14th 2008 10:58AM]

I disagree. Granted most people don't like pink things but have a product in pink and a few other colors, I think is a good idea. Kinda like cameras, before most digital cameras were silver, now you can get up to 8 different colors for the same camera. (and I'm taking about compact digital, not dslrs)

I heard T-mobile threatened to sue them >_>

I don't know which side I would take.

I love my ihp120!

MAGENTA!!!! NOM NOM NOM NOM!

From the size of the thing, looks like its running on a 4GB HDD and not flash memory.

Whats the point of that in this day when you can stuff 200 GB on a same sized hard drive?

Why didn't they just use flash and reduce the form factor to something more appealing?

[Craig @ Apr 14th 2008 11:32AM]

Wait...it's the *form factor* you find unappealing?!?

[Amaechi @ Apr 14th 2008 11:31AM]

absolutely hideous

I'll tell you one thing... That thing isnt giving ME a chubby...

[anonymouspimp @ Apr 14th 2008 11:55AM]

Oh iRiver... where did you go wrong?

There was a time when you had something going for yourselves. Sleek looking devices, a good UI, and you were actually on store shelves.

My condolences... I'm really sorry. :(

Gag!!!

[paloverde @ Apr 14th 2008 12:13PM]

I have to say I was disappointed too, I got the 2 gig about a month ago thinking it would just surpass my expectations, lousy video playback, unable to put album arts, pretty clumsy navigation, too chunky, I have reverted back to my samsung P2 and I am giving my e100 away. It is crap.

[electron @ Apr 14th 2008 12:31PM]

YEAH! ANOTHER SAMMY P2 OWNER!!!!!

[fanman @ Apr 14th 2008 1:08PM]

iPod.

[tubeplus @ Apr 14th 2008 1:22PM]

I had a Sammy K3 and it is sexy and gorgeous as always. I like its touch sensitive buttonless UI.

[Sam @ Apr 14th 2008 5:23PM]

wow... I had no idea they still make gameboys...

[Nelson @ Apr 14th 2008 11:03PM]

Yea, thats right we don't need any more fat gadgets, you hear that fatty, we need em anorexic sexy and slim and please stop crying.

[sam Y @ Apr 29th 2008 3:54AM]

One thing is a good price range, but it looks cheap.
I wonder it will get the value for the money.
