Product Description

From the very same people who brought you the world's first portable digital MP3 player, Eiger Labs now proudly presents the second of its MPMan series, the MPMan F20.The MPMan F20 continues the legacy the original MPMan created with its sleek and stylish looks coupled with uncompromising, state of the art technology. It adds faster downloads, convenience and expandability. 100% solid state means there are absolutely no moving parts. It will never skip or wobble like the other portable players because it does not use tapes or CD's but flash memory. With its built-in 32 megabytes of flash memory you can store between 30 minutes of near-CD quality. The MPMan can be upgraded to 64MB to provide over an hour's worth of near-CD quality music for your enjoyment. Despite the formidable amount of technology packed into this audio powerhouse, the MPMan weighs in at less than 2.5oz (not including the batteries). It is smaller than a 3.5 floppy diskette and even thinner than a pack of gum! You can now truly take your music anywhere!!

Amazon.com Review

Eiger Labs, maker of the first portable MP3 player, returns with this second-generation digital music player that's worth a look and a listen. In the F20V, Eiger has streamlined the design of the original MPMan to include more advanced features in a smaller package.

MPMan plays MP3 music files downloaded from the Internet or copied from your favorite audio CDs. Typically, an MP3 file contains about one minute of audio per megabyte of information at CD-quality compression rates (128 kilobits per second). The MPMan comes with 32 MB of built-in storage space. However, you can upgrade to 64 MB or store additional music content on separate SmartMedia Flash cards (sold separately). In addition to music files, this unit also supports nonmusic-data files such as .doc, .gif, .txt, and .bmp formats.

The provided MPMan Manager software was a snap to use. Once we installed it on our computer, we simply selected the MP3 files that we wanted to transfer from our PC to the MPMan. The files were transferred to the MPMan via the PC parallel port, using the supplied 25-to-18 pin printer cable. (While some other MP3 players require that the player be firmly placed in a docking station, that's not the case with the MPMan.) We were a bit disappointed that we were unable to upload MP3 files stored on our SmartMedia card back to our computer. However, this is because of a copyright protection that is built into the SmartMedia card format, and it's not a flaw in the MPMan.

This portable unit is about the size of a pager and comes in its own snug carrying case; we found it to be pleasantly lightweight and compact. Unlike many other MP3 players, the MPMan contains a bass-boost feature that offers 20 decibels of bass enhancement. We were particularly impressed with the crisp, clear sound of the MPMan's earbud-style headphones. In addition, we found that the cushioned headphones fit comfortably in our ears.

With advanced features and good sound quality, the MPMan is a good value for anyone looking for an inexpensive, entry-level digital music player.

Pros:

Topnotch accessories included (comfortable headphones, snug carrying case)
No-skip playback

Cons:

Additional memory cards are expensive

Win2000/XP Driver is finally available!.......2004-01-28

Eigerlabs (officially MPMan.com, Inc.) seemed to have revitalized their business with a great new website, a bunch of new line of mp3 players, and....

the MUCH MUCH OVERDUE Win2000/XP driver for Eigerman F20! (which you can download at www.mpman.com)

F20 claims to be the first MP3 Player ever, invented in 1997. Quality wise I think F20 has an excellent sound quality and decent functionalities.

However, in light of today's more sophisticated mp3 players out there, you shouldn't even be thinking about buying it. Besides, they've discontinued the product anyway.

But thank you MPMan.com for the Win2000/XP Driver!!!

Its ok.......2002-12-27

Good sound, solid consturction. But, since it doesnt have much storage space you cant store many songs on it. Good buy for the price though.

Mad.......2002-12-12

I enjoyed using my mp3 player for about a year until I upgraded to Windows XP at home. Eiger Labs does not support Windows Xp, so I loaded all of my mp3's onto a few zip disks and took them to work where I had Windows 98. I have subsequently got a new PC with another operating system that Eiger Labs doesn't support, Windows 2000. I have wrote to Eiger's support e-mail and have yet to hear from them.

To tell you the truth I am quite mad seeing how I can't update my player with new songs and that I am stuck with what I have already installed on it. Since I started writing this I have lowered my rating from a 2 to a 1 with my anger.

I am sorry, I needed a place to vent and maybe this with help others that have Win'XP or '2000.

now windows 2000 support.......2002-10-20

I can't believe this company doesn't support NT or Win 2000. The lack of support for >32 MB Smart Media cards is also annoying. The manufacturer should wake up.

Highly not recommended.......2002-09-02

When I first got the player, I was very happy with it, the space was limited though, and file transfers were pretty low. Then I upgraded to windows NT ... and the player is completely incompatible. I tried e-mailing eiger labs, my first e-mail went completely unread or responded too, and after my FOURTH e-mail, I finally got a response saying that no, it did not support NT software, and they never plan to make compatible software ... all my further e-mails were ignored. It is a good deal, and if you can get compatible software, its a great player ... but don't buy it to find you can completely not use it. Also, the customer support has just been god awful, and offered no help or even apology.

Product Description

You've seen improvements in notebook performance before - but never on this scale. The Intel Core Duo powering MacBook Pro is actually two processors built into a single chip. This, combined with myriad other engineering leaps, boosts performance up to four times higher than the PowerBook G4. With this awesome power, it's a breeze to render complex 3D models, enjoy smooth playback of HD video, or host a four-way video conference.Intel Core Duo is the first chip built using Intel's groundbreaking 65-nanometer process - resulting in transistors so small, you could fit a hundred inside a single human cell. With smaller distances for electrons to travel, and two processors designed to share resources and conserve power, Intel Core Duo achieves higher levels of performance as it uses fewer watts. Which is what makes it possible to design a super-powerful MacBook Pro that's only one inch thin.When Mac technology makes something easy, it's hardly news. So here's more non-news for MacBook Pro owners: software just works. If you see the Universal logo on a new application, that means it will run on Intel- and PowerPC-based Mac computers. For most existing applications, you simply do what you've always done: double-click them. Thanks to the Rosetta technology in Mac OS X, they look and feel just like they did before.

Not so great.......2007-03-09

This is a low end card shuffler that does shuffle the cards. Period. The case is a brittle plastic which aches to break apart when dropped. The battery powered shuffling mechanism is screechy and loud. Use one hand to hold the button down and the other hand to cover your closest ear.

And, lastly, the worst part of the gadget is the almost IMPOSSIBLE design for inserting or retrieving the batteries. Considering the fact that people who would want a gadget shuffler are probably arthritic you would think there would be an ergonomic approach to supplying the power source. Not so. There is no ribbon tab to withdraw the batteries once in place, but even getting them in the right position to begin with is incredibly difficult. The entry space is too small and awkwardly placed. There isn't enough room for the battery and a finger to push it into place. Set aside 30 whole minutes to accomplish the task (spend 5 minutes looking for a tool to assist you. I used a thin wooden dowel).

There is no little diagram as to which way to point the batteries so you wind up best guessing. My best guess resulted in the cards being spewed all over the room rather than shuffled into a neat pile. While this might be an entertaining little trick for when the grandkids visit, it was frustrating beyond belief to have to start over to reposition the batteries.

While the product itself left much to be desired, the customer service I received was top-notch. Postage, however, resulted in half the purchase price.

All totaled I would not recommend this product unless you enjoy a frustrating dexterity challenge, are deaf, and only play cards three times a year thus extending the battery time.

Not this one.......2007-01-10

Works so so. Spend more on a better system. Cards get stuck and it is in the closet getting dust now.

This product is great for those who don't play cards much, but hates to shuffle. It is loud and jams easily, but in the long run gets the job done.

Item works reasonably well. Sometimes the cards get jammed and flip over while being shuffled.

Piece of c...p!.......2006-11-27

I can't believe they sell such a piece of c...p!
After inserted the 9V battery, I just pushed the button to start shuffling one time, and I heard a cracking noise right away. One piece of the mechanism fell off, and I could hear it when shaking the box. Of course, the shuffler was broken... Wished I could have read the first comment before buying that piece of c...p in some store.

Piece - O - Crappo.......2006-08-15

This is the kind of gift you will give to someone you really, really hate. This thing does NOT shuffle plus it WILL eat up your cards badly. DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE... that is unless you wish to annoy the hell out of someone and have fun doing so. If you do go ahead and spend your hard earn mula on this purchase here are some suggestions on how you can use your brand new Card Shuffler.

1. Pet Dog's Chew Toy
2. Door Stop
3. Play Street Hockey
4. Stress Release Stomping Toy
5. Mother-in-law Birthday Gift
6. Modern Art for Coffee Table
7. Nerf Ball Target Practice
8. Condom Dispenser

Kind of think about it, this is a great toy. Have fun!

PS. If you are looking for a shuffler that really works maybe you should take a look at: Excalibur Professional 6 Deck Card Shuffler; you might like it.

junk.......2006-04-19

I wouldn't recommend this shuffler to anyone. It shuffles more from one side than the other. When through shuffling on the left side the right side is only half through. The cards will jam in the tray stopping the rest of the cards from coming down. The switch just works part time, you have to stop and restart several times.
