The battery life was awful, and thats only when it worked. It turned itself off on me about a week ago and has yet to work again. It had a full battery so there was no other reason for it!!

Really light and portable, great for running. You can watch clips with some quality thanks to the compressing software that comes in the back. Really easy to transfer music from the PC - just drag & drop.

The USB connection is a bit temperamental; if you want to open it with the Windows explorer you have to click and hold the window top bar, while it searches for contents (and until the content is displayed). If you don't, the window will simply close.

The software ... either it's got bugs or it's the most counter-intuitive, unfriendly interface ever (IMHO!). I printed out the PDF manual which actually is quite clear ... but you try & follow it & it just doesn't respond as respected. eg: to select something (an album say from the drop down menu) .. you click 'select' & it does something else, most of the time. Then occasionally it does the 'right' thing. Incredibly annoying - eventually I've given up & returned to my basic Sandosk 1Gb unit .. mas I say, maybe my unit has a bug. Dunno, all I know is my unit is virtually unuseable.
