Customer Review: Ibiza Rhapsody 30 GB Wi-Fi/MP3 Player by Haier (Blk)

It is my my opinion that this mp3 player works OK as a player although it has some problems. For instance, when you switch it off and turn it back on later and you want to start the player where you were when you turned it off, you have to 1. Go Select Music 2. Hit enter 3. Scroll down to Now Playing at the bottom of the screen 4. Enter Again. With my Creative Zen M, I just turn it back on and it picks up where it left off.
The next thing, which I consider major, if, like I did, you are considering this mp3 player because it is wireless, don't. As a wireless player I find it to be next to worthless. It works OK on my home network, but anywhere else, you will need to know things like WEPs, passwords, etc. to connect to a local area wireless network outside of your home network. I thought it was going to work like my cell phone connects to the internet, but no. Plus if, like me, you are no fan of Rhapsody (lots of bugs, freezes up computers) then too bad, you have to use their program.

Customer Review: It's pretty good...

I've owned the Ibiza for a few months now, and I really do like it. The only things that I don't like is sometimes the interface feels to simple and there aren't that many advanced options offered, like custom EQ. The other problem I've had with it is that it seems to be hard to keep a wireless connection. I can be in the same room as my wireless router and the connection will drop quite easily. Taking the rubber protective case off helps with the connection, but it still seems like it should be better, and I shouldn't have to remove the rubber case. I really do like the product over all and I would recommend it. I just wish the wireless didnt drop so much.

Customer Review: Good Screwdriver

Well...The only good thing about this product is the screwdriver. Bluntly, it is effective and functional, unlike the rest of this product. Included are two incredibly useless plastic "tools" (if you can call them that), that are designed only to bend uselessly and cause frustrations. The "high-quality" battery caused me no end of suffering. After installation, the I-pod failed to start. I assumed it was my fault, but after several weeks I reinstalled the original battery and the I-pod worked flawlessly. examining the battery, I found inferior sweat-shop sodering on a inferior chinese rip-off battery. Opinion: stay away from this product. Spend a little extra and get a quality replacement. Caveat Emptor!

Customer Review: inexpensive, but the prying tools could be better

Installation was no problem once I got the case open. I had to carefully crack it with an eyeglass screwdriver, since the included prying tools are flimsy. 2 are included, but 2 mediocre tools aren't equal to 1 good one. After I got a wide enough crack, the tools safely pried the case apart. Even with the eyeglass screwdriver, there's no damage to the exterior.

The torx screwdriver worked well. The instructions are good, and it took about 1/2 hour to complete the installation. After doing it once, I think that I could change another battery in 10 minutes.

I'm getting about 15 hours of playing time with the new battery (50% more than the original), and the price was right.

Experience the music the way the artist intended. The CDA-9887 is equipped with the amazing capabilities of IMPRINT.

If you like to tweak the sound, this premium head unit offers time correction, graphic or parametric equalizer and 3-way or 2-way crossover, plus you've got the three pairs of 4-Volt Pre-Outs. It's also ready for all of the latest media formats MP3, WMA and AAC music files. Plus, with Full Speed connection, you have access to iPod's music content with remarkable speed.

Customer Review: Great Unit. Lives up to Alpine's Reputation

This is the fourth Alpine head unit I have purchased; it's also the best. The IMPRINT sound system offfers crisp, clean sound. The amount of features is more than enough for just about anyone. Purchasing the hi-speed ipod connection cable is a must (Alpine KCE-422i). The interface is easy to use and Alpine's new blue display color (it can be changed to red or green) is great, as is the remote control unit. Definitely a great stereo!

Customer Review: wow

The cda-9887 is diffidently an audiophile deck; it is one of the best head units I have ever used. the only reasons I have given it a 4 star review are, the I pod control is just ok it will not allow you to return to the play list once you have selected a song without starting over. And the menu requires you to press too many buttons, alpine could have streamlined this. Although once you get the hang of it its no big deal. Also get the imprint it is the reason to buy this deck. If you use a Mac computer you will have to use a pc laptop from a friend (alpine + Mac = no dice) but once you set it up you will be amazed. The improvement is dramatic.
