    Got one a month ago.
    Lasted for 3 days until I tried charging it using the mains adapter...zzzzppph...smell of burning electronics
    Adapter was labelled 110-240 Hz

    Returned to Canada for repair/replacement as requested.

    A few notes on quality:
    1) Electronic interferance audible listening to the radio
    2) Power switch is a bit clunky.
    3) Battery charging indicator does not indicate when fully charged -ever!
    4) User manual is largely unusable - the quality of the english translation is highly amusing!

    There are loads on ebay. You can get 1 to 2GB ones delivered for €50-60. Features look good enough.

    Used one, look nice but have a very clunky interface, sometimes really slow.
    You'll use it a few times before the quality annoys too much to make it worth it.

    It will, however, impress people when they first see it, especially if they know the capabilities of a Nano and see video running on your device.

    ive got a 1gb one. theyre ok. they have a little loudspeaker and some other cool features. the controlls feel very plasticy and are hard to get around the incredibly confusing menus with. also i wouldnt be expecting any cinema quality playback for vids, barley watchable. on the plus side the manual is a work of comedy genius and worth the €60 on its own.

    have one too,
    its decent enough for what it is.
    just load it up with songs and press play.
    dont bother with folders,
    mine is temperemental about the functions of each button......

    anyone know how to put it on hold / turn off the light while its playing?

    Cheers lads. I might go for one for the sake of €60 but thanks to the tips at least I'll know what I'm getting.
