5 out of 5 stars Does what it says on the box   August 5, 2008

The text entry for track info and settings is very slow. The speakers (100W pair)only rate as a midi system so don't get this if you consider yourself to be a audiophile and you want to annoy the neighbours. Having said that it performs to specification and is exactly what I was looking for. the cables to the speakers are of reasonable quality and the ends are tinned so they don't fray. The track selection and randomisation functions are reasonably developed, but only as good as the track info you provide. Transfer from my PC was easy. If you do this make sure the tracks are correctly labelled before transfer. Wireless network was a pain for me to set up as I normally use WEP-PKA but had to change to simple WEP, which meant reconfiguring all my pc wireless settings. network has worked every time since. the Gracenote track syncing function is one I use with my mp3 player (creative) but unlike itunes you don't automatically get an album icon. You can get these separately but is a bit more convoluted.
There is a connection for an ipod and native mobile players, but haven't worked out if I can connect a creative player yet. You can play from USB and from PC with direct network connection or wireless.
the 16 times rip to HDD doesn't seem that fast in reality but you can listen to tracks whilst you rip if you are impatient to hear your new CD.

I would recommend this unit over an ipod speaker system and the unit will work for a technophobe.
Over all I am very pleased and am just waiting to get the wireless music station now.
