Product Description
The ultra-portable iRiver T10 MP3 player delivers exceptional sound quality in a unique, sport-ready design, making it a great fit for jogging, cycling, and a ton of other active uses. The compact body measures a mere 3.4 by 1.6 by 1.2 inches (W x H x D) and fits easily in the palm of your hand or a shirt pocket. Yet the T10 doesn't skimp on storage capacity, with 512 MB of built-in memory that holds up to 17 hours of music--enough for all but the most dedicated workout fiend. And downloading music is easy thanks to the PlaysForSure compatibility, which lets you access millions of songs from almost any subscription-based download service. Just plug the USB 2.0-compliant device into a PC and go crazy.
Once the player is loaded with music (it supports MP3, WMA, and OGG music files), you can navigate through your favorite selections via the vivid color display, which lists the track name, artist info, and time remaining. Also along for the ride is an integrated FM tuner that not only plays NPR, music stations, and other programming, but also offers a recording option should you want to catch "Car Talk" at a later time. Best of all, the T10 is completely skip-free, so you won't suffer any interruptions during a tough jog or weightlifting session.
Additional features include a voice recorder, an enhanced SRS WOW audio function that simulates 3-D sound, and a sport clip that attaches to your belt or backpack. The T10, which runs for up to 45 hours on a single AA battery (included), weighs only 1.7 ounces and is backed by a one-year warranty.

Pretty Good Mp3 Player
By R. Leary
Earlyer I had a iPod Nano, it was good but it broke.So not a lot of mp3 players are better than iPod since everyone knows what those are and they have a good reputation. So I was looking for something cheap. I saw the iRiver T10 512MB mp3 player and I liked the way it looked. I have to say the picture makes the color look dark red but no its light red, not pink. I Also read all of the customer reviews for this product and the 1 GB T10 as well. Nothing about this mp3 player is bad. People said it hard or confusing about using it or getting it set up on the computer, I sure dont think so and i'm only 14 years old so if I can set it up and use it easly then you can too.Features: A-B repeat, Press the record button and you can save songs that you dont own from the radio thats in the mp3 player to the mp3 player or you can record your own voice when you speak into a microphone thats also built in, It tells time, Locks so it never turns on accidentily, and its got tons of things that you can make your mp3 player personalized the way you want it.Pros: Good sound quality, Long battery life, Easy to use and set up if you have windows xp and windows media player 10 which I had when I first got this mp3 player so I had no troble, Cool background and color, and the thickness is a little bulky but I like it and I think the color and style is cool.Cons: It has this cross fadeing thing that when you pause it and turn it on again it starts off quiet and then loud to the volume setting you have it at its a little annoying but I can live with it. and when the backlight turns off you cant see anything and I can Live with that, I guess you can set the backlight timer to always on. And those are only little problems so this mp3 player is all good.Drop Test: Ive droped it (accidently) from about 3 feet at 2 different times and no scraches or problems.So thats all, its a pretty good 512MB mp3 player.

By David Tucker
I had never owned an MP3 player before the last 2 weeks. I got a couple giftcards though and decided that I needed another new toy to play with, so I looked at MP3 players. After briefly using an RCA Lyra, I took it back when I found out it didn't work with JANUS and it's FM tuner was weak at best.Then I took a look at the iRivers on the suggestion of some various people and I have not been disappointed.Pros : Excellent battery life (50 hours), FM tuner, great sound, easy to use controls, what I think is an attractive design, light but sturdy, compatible with subscription music, and a great color screenCons : A little expensive for the memory it hasAs I don't have a lot of music, FM tuners and subscription music are the only way I would get any value out of an MP3 player and it's really great that I can have both of these features in a player that is a really high end device from a respected company. If it's in your budget, get the 1 GB model of the T10 but otherwise, this one won't disappoint you at all. (Well, unless you try and use the included ear buds. I didn't even try putting them in my ears.)

Good overall. Difficulties upgrading firmware
By A. Lattke
Pros: Excellent sound quality. Color screen. Intuitive interface. Recording from radio. Built in microphone.Cons: No armband included. With battery, actually feels a little heavy (but not too bad). FW was a pain in the butt to upgrade. Headphones have good sound, but are uncomfortable.This player comes with firmware 1.04 out of the box. You can use the player in one of two modes: UMS or MTP. UMS stands for Universal Mass Storage; you can plug your player into the USB port of your computer and it shows up as a drive. Then you just drag and drop files into the player, and best of all, you can hook it up to any computer (but you can only upgrade firmware with Windows XP). MTP (I think stands for Media Transport Protocol) is the other mode, and via MTP you can have Windows Media Player manage your music collection and sync up with the player.Personally, I like UMS. It's easy to just drag and drop.So now, my gripe about the firmware update... When I get a new player, the first thing I do is go to the website and upgrade to latest firmware. I tried doing that, but the latest firmware (v1.70) does not upgrade directly from v1.04. After writing to tech support at iRiver, tier1 support sent me to the same upgrade link that I had already been to. This was aggravating. I responded letting them know that that didn't solve my problem. Then they sent me email with a support phone number. I called the number, (and here's the good part) the person on the other end of the line actually spoke English without an accent. She helped me step by step, very accurately with my problem. It turned out I had to upgrade to v1.54 before I could go to v1.70 (but this is not documented anywhere where the public could see it because it's a new problem).I am now happy with this player. The sound quality is one notch above the iPod players (iRiver's sound quality has always impressed me). It used to be that their interface was clunky. Even though they have similar controls as the older players, they are a lot more intuitive.
