The non-MP3 player........2006-03-26
Light weight and easy to use.......2004-02-14
Second - To the reviewer Electronics Fan from Boston MA. This is a Samsung not a Rio digital audio player. I could just see you going to back to a car dealer complaining that you cannot start your Ford with your spouse's GM key. So some advice, use the software that comes with the unit.
Finally, the Samsung YP-35H - I purchased this unit for my wife, who jogs and travels on a regular basis, because of its size, weight and ease of use. The unit holds 2 to 4 CDs depending on the bit-rate used. I copied my wife's CDs onto the PC in 64 and 96 Kbps format to allow her to download the maximum possible onto the YP-35H if quantity is more important than quality. The sound in either format is as good as any portable CD player I have owned. The controls are easy to use and intuitive; nothing fancy but it has the functionality required. As for the file downloading software goes, you use Windows Explorer to copy the music files from the PC to the YP-35H, again simple yet effective. Unless you copy your music file in a way, as explained below, the only way you can find a specific piece of music is to use the Playmode Intro feature or skip from one song to the next. So the unit's main purpose is download music and enjoy listening to it. To copy file in proper sequence (such as chapters of a book) don't copy the files from the PC to the YP-35H but copy the directory the files are in; the only drawback is that if you are copying music and want to listen in shuffle mode you will only hear one directory/album at a time. A way around this is to copy the music into a directory that can be called "Favourites". As is with virtually all portable units, the headphones/earphones are usually the weakest part of the unit. The earphones that came with this unit are relatively comfortable but if you're running they tend to fall out. So be prepared to buy a pair that fit you well and are appropriate for your use. Battery lifespan is very good. One wish would be to have a way to activate the backlight without activating anything else at the same time. So 4 stars for what it will be used for.
Worst software ever.......2004-01-26
Not for books on tape.......2003-11-07
Good MP3 Player.......2003-06-11
Pros:
-Good range of EQ options
-Very small (about the size of a pager)
-Backlit display
-Easy to move files from the computer to the player
-Doubles as a voice recorder (although I haven't tried this feature yet)
-Runs on one AAA battery
Cons:
-Packaged headphones (bud type--they consistently fell out of my ears while jogging)
-Buttons are very small and sometimes difficult to manipulate
-Although it hasn't happened yet, I'm convinced that by snapping the player in and out of the belt clip over and over again, I'm going to break the belt clip (it's necessary to remove the player from the belt clip to both change the batteries and upload files)
-The battery lid also looks like it would break if opened too many times (hasn't actually happened yet)
-The included software for converting CD tracks to MP3 files requires the user to manually input all song/album/artist information. It doesn't appear to be able to retrieve this info from either the CD or the web.
-Fixed memory (not expandable)
-No FM tuner
-Songs are played in alphabetical order, first by artist, then by song title, so custom play orders are not possible, at least not that I've been able to determine (it does have a "random play" function, though)

ASIN: B00006HQF5 |
Product Description
3Com EtherLink 10/100 PCI network interface cards with 3XP processor work in tandem with servers, desktops, and workstations to provide unprecedented performance, intelligence, and data security. This new generation of Fast Ethernet NIC is uniquely optimized for Windows 2000 to reduce CPU utilization and enhance performance by offloading TCP/IP networking tasks from the host system to the NIC's onboard 3XP processor. Running cycle-intensive IPSec encryption algorithms, TCP segmentation, and TCP/IP checksum operations on the NIC's 3XP processor and encryption chip delivers secure, reliable connections while maximizing system performance.3Com pioneered the concept of offloading IP checksum operations in 1998. The new 3XP processor in this powerful NIC takes offloading one step further by offloading the TCP segmentation process from the host CPU to the NIC. Offloading this function further accelerates system processing and improves application response times. The 3XP processor and encryption chip work in tandem to accelerate the processing of IPSec encryption algorithms. You no longer have to make a choice between system performance and protection for sensitive data. With the 3CR990 family, implementation of end-to-end LAN security is practical and easy.

Griffin USB-Audio Hub - Hub - 4 ports - USB
Manufacturer: Griffin Technology ProductGroup: CE ASIN: B00006BALN |
Product Description
The Griffin 4-port USB Audio Hub is the first hub designed with audio recording and playback in mind. After extensive internal testing showed that most USB hubs failed to support USB Audio devices, such as the iMic USB audio interface, Griffin Technology did additional research which led to its own solution for a hub that provided full USB audio capabilities.In addition to its USB audio capability the Griffin 4-port USB Audio Hub is a functional USB 4-port hub that works unpowered or with the included 5V power supply. Also the fact that they are stackable allows you to use several together and not have them take up valuable space on your desk.Customer Reviews:
Works like a champ.......2005-05-05
All Hubs are Not Created Equal.......2003-06-13
I purchased this hub along with Griffin's PowerWave; they recommend that you use this hub with the PowerWave and the iMic. I'm told that most hubs are asynchronous (irregular) but the USB-Audio hub is isochronous (at regular intervals) -- a must for USB-audio devices.
The hub works as advertised (but two tips: if you are using a Mac and OS 9.1, you should update to 9.2.2; and if you are using the PowerWave or iMic, you should download the PowerWave Control at ...
BONUS: I have a thumbnail drive made by Lexar; it did not work in my old hub (yes, it was a powered hub). But it does work with this hub -- so I don't have to plug it directly into the computer's usb port.
SIZE: you may not be able to tell, but this thing is smaller than most hubs. The four ports are along the back, but the USB upstream connection and power supply are on the side -- so that gives you a sense of scale. The footprint is much smaller than my old hub.
If anyone had told me I'd be excited enough about a hub to write a review, I'd have said they were crazy.
