    posted by krs99 on 06/17/2011 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    Great product. I already reviewed the silver coloured one so I won't go into the same details again. Instructions are in English but the unit defaut language is Chinese. Took me a long time for the first one to set the default language to English - instruct...
    Cons:
    The only con is the short cable they give you to act as a FM antenna. That approach doesn't really work as the reception varies...

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Build quality of this product is excellent, the only thing I don't like is the plastic base. Features available are extensive. If I can add a picture here later I will do so from the user guide to summarize the features Sound quality is very good for tiny s...
    Cons:
    Well - first issue is the same with many of these items - the default language is Chinese and it took me quite a while of guess...

    Pros:
    Very useful device Tried it with both Mac and Windows to read SD cards - no problems Also handy as a small USB hub

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Fantastic unit for the price Nice build quality Looks expensive with the small size and metallized case Immediately recognized by Mac OS 10.4 and 10.6 Comes formatted in FAT16 but no problem reformatting it. Used it as both a USB stick and as a Micro SD car...
    Cons:
    Micro SD card a bit hard to remove. Cap is separate - doesn't take long to loose it.

    Absolutely none I can think of

    Pretty much what I expected

    posted by krs99 on 07/13/2010 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Four digit display with better accuracy in the lower range which is exactly what I was looking for. I believe this is the only type that DX sells (in silver and black) that has that feature. Display is backlit which is nice - doesn't mention that in the DX ...
    Cons:
    The English both on the box and in the little user pamphlet is hard or impossible to understand. Basic functions are obvious, b...

    Pros:
