| Hi everyone! I've been reading this forum for about a month now, as I try to decide which player to buy. (Wow, I'm a poet!) My husband recently bought me the Archos 605 wifi, but it's just WAY too complicated and "hi-tech" for me. Plus, a little too bulky for my daily jogs. I told him he could keep it for himself (he didn't seem to mind) and I would find myself a smaller, more user-friendly player. (Not that I don't LOVE the Archos... being able to surf the web from almost anywhere is cool as poop!)
So anyway, I've been reading this forum and the ones over at MP4Nation for the past month, finding out all I could about these neat little gadgets and from the get-go, I've had my eye on a Teclast. Just couldn't decide WHICH one to get! I really sorta want the T39, (I like the touch screen), but after reading about so many problems with the software, etc., and seeing that several stores no longer carry it, I reluctantly decided I best wait on that one.
Finally, just last night, I tossed a coin and went with the 4GB C280. (Ordered it from FutureDaps) It has everything I want, I LOVE the look of it (yeah, I'm a girl!!), and it has more memory than the C290, the closest competitor in my book. I like the 290's bigger screen, but I was a TINY bit worried about the G-Sensor stuff. I know it can be turned off, but.... for some reason, I worry it may somehow "bugger it up" just by being there, know what I mean? I would probably never use it, so I just decided not to bother with it and get the 280. SOOO... anyone else have a 280 and love/hate it? And why? Did I make a good decision?
Wow... SORRY to make such a long, boring, rambling first post! I guess this is my way of saying "hi!" :-)
