M-Cody MX-100 twice reviewed
CNET and DAPreview both have reviews of the M-Cody MX-100 MP3 player, which we
first spotted last year. Both are fairly positive but DAPreview is a bit more giddy about it, saying it's a great choice as a second digital audio player or for anyone just looking for a decent flash player. Both also praise the sleek design and great battery life — about 35 hours
— although neither's digging the fact that you can only recharge it by connecting it to your PC. CNET also suggests ditching the included earbuds for a decent set of
headphones. And as we mentioned in our earlier post, the MX-100 will also work as an IR remote with compatible electronics. Look for it in 256MB,
512MB, and 1GB versions for $155, $195, $245 respectively.
