Amazon.com Product Description
With the Samsung YP-T8, you can take everything with you--digital music and video, photo albums, e-books, and games. More than just a portable digital entertainment center, the 512 MB flash memory YP-T8X also offers an integrated FM tuner, a voice recorder (via built-in microphone), and the capability to convert music from CDs, cassettes, and radio into MP3 files without a PC via a line-in recording input. Other features include a brightly colorful 1.8-inch LCD, a built-in rechargeable battery with up to 20 hours of battery life, and USB storage capability for transferring your most important files--all without connecting to a PC. Weighing in at just under 2 ounces, this ergonomically curved device feels comfortable in your hand and offers easy access to the front as well as the sides. The TFT LCD screen alternates between serving as a menu for the music services and a video monitor in landscape mode. Supported files include MP3, WMA, Audio ASF, and OGG audio playback (though not protected WMA-DRM from online), along with JPEG still images and MPEG-4 video (at a 10 to 15 fps frame rate). The YP-T8 also offers USB host support, letting you connect external devices such as digital cameras or other MP3 players directly to the unit to transfer music, images, and other data files without using a PC. The player includes five full-color video games, including Darts and Hurdles. The FM radio, meanwhile, sports 30 presets while recording programs to the device's memory. This unit also features user customizable EQ settings and Samsung's proprietary DNSe portable 3D sound technology for virtual surround sound. The YP-T8X connects to PCs via a USB 2.0 connection (cable included) and is compatible with Windows 98 SE, 2000, and XP operating systems. It also charges while connected to your PC or through the included AC adapter. The YP-T8X measures 1.7 by 3.3 by 0.6 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.

 Great YP-T8X August 19, 2007

Before I bought me a Zune player. I had this little player for like a year and half. Its a great player. Sometimes I still use it for voice recording for my exams in college. Since the zune does not have a voice recorder. I recommend this one.
 Well suited as an audio book player, maybe more April 7, 2007

If you would like to listen to electronic audio books in WMA format with DRM (digital rights management), this player might be just the ticket. I believe that IPOD cannot do this.
There are so many aspects to this player, I cannot give it a general rating that is fair. But, I have tested it for its utility as an electronic audio book player and found it to be the best among three older Samsung players I tested.
It has a bookmark facility as well as a hyper fast forward/rewind that will allow you to find your place in a 16 hour WMA file (~250 MB) within a minute (tested). You should not have to though, it auto-resumes just where you left off, and you can place a bookmark just to be sure. Takes a little learning curve though along with putting up with boot-up time.
Note that it is NOT very well suited to playing back audio books ripped from multiple CD's. It does not recognize folders as playlist items, a big drawback if it is used as a CD audio book player or a music CD player. It only understands individual tracks, but it handles very long WMA tracks very well.
I cannot even touch on all the features and shortcomings of this device... but it is well worth owning just to play with it. A perfect starter because its limited memory capacity has driven the price down. You will find excellent bang for the buck, as it is a slick and capable device, until you want more memory.
I have done only limited testing using it for photo, video, music, and recording. Feelings are mixed so far, but would give it a 3/5 at the moment. As a player for for downloadable eAudioBooks from Net Library, it is at max a 4 given the BEWARE notice below.
P.S. No longer available new, be sure your used unit has a wall charger and USB cable included. Software easily downloadable from Samsung but is not needed unless you want to transfer video (why bother?). Works as a simple flash drive unless WMA DRM is used... It worked with Windows Media Player 9 for downloading WMA DRM.
BEWARE: Battery is built-in and may not be user replacable. An automatic 1 point off the rating.
Good device! April 3, 2007
Oscar Kosy (Minnesota, USA)
I have been using that mp3 player for 5 months, and I love it so much. It looks neat and the sound quality is very awesome. The only thing that bugs me is that it does not have a search option to search for the songs. You have to go through 100 songs to to find a specific song that you want to listen. Other than that, it is pretty cool.

This mp3 player does work with Netlibrary/recorded books. I purchased for Christmas, and I am pleasantly pleased over my Sandisk sdmx1 which played fine, but could only pause and play again. This one has bookmarks and the ability to skip 10 minutes at a time to find the right spot. Also has ability to play videos, pictures, read text documents, record and listen to FM radio.
Take a hike ipod... this one rules.
Ebayed for $26!!!!!
