- Only 1 problem
I've had one of these for about 6 months now.I rip my music down to 24MHz WMA files, so I can get about 8 hours of music on 256M.This has been great for traveling.The 1 problem I have is the way the joystick is also the on/off button, the jumpdrive will often turn on in my pocket or backpack.It does have a powersave mode, but I still wear batteries down due to it turning on all the time.
I did need to buy new headphones as the ones that came with it didn't fit my ears well.

- Some Problems - Backgound Noise - Playback Order
I just purchased one and have two problems with it. First, there is a high pitch noise that begins when you press play. It's noticeable between tracks and during silent periods of a track. I listen to a lot of classical as well as rock. If all you listen to is rock or other music that doesn't have silent pauses or quiet passages this won't be much of an issue.
More troublesome is the fact that you cannot specify the order tracks will be played. For some reason it always puts a track ... Read More

- 256 Jumpdrive Junk
I purchased 3 of these and they all experience the same problem.They will play one song and quit - never cycling to the next song.I've tried 3 ways to upload songs, including no directories -doesn't matter.My 3 are being returned to Lexar proper, I must have gotten a bad batch.Once one song stops playing, the unit stays on until you reset the battery to turn it off.Very frustrating, I had pretty high hopes and the price was great!Guess you get what you pay for - beware.
Rating: - Easy to use!
The best part of this compact mp3 player is its ease of use. I plug it into a USB port of my Mac and drag mp3 files (or any data files) into the device. That's all. I can put about 70 of 128kbps mp3 files in this 256mb player. I'm satisfied with the sound quality I get from the device. The included earbud headphones are not too bad, although I use Sony MDR-EX51LP Fontopia Headphones with it.I got my JumpDrive Music 256mb at $60.00 from J & R Music and Computer World. If you have no need for such ... Read More
Rating: - Nice gadget, good sound but feels a little cheap.
I have used this device and it is very friendly to work with, delivers good sound but I recommend you use another brand of headphones, the ones provided are not so good quality. works just like a usb storage device and requieres no drivers. for the price I don't think you can get a better deal. (I have compared it with the Creative Labs Muvo and this one sounds better although is a little bit bigger). At first I was a little disappointed because of the case material that looks cheapy but once I started ... Read More
