I got my 1GB MP3 player (bargain I know) through today and the interface is hideous. I am still considering sending it back, but after looking at all the other flash based MP3 players is seems that they all have the same interface (volume paddle, play button, lock switch and flippy thing).
So other than the interface (physical buttons and internal menu) I am liking it. Just playing stuff is ok and I managed to listen to The Dawn And Drew Show while making dinner. So it is growing on me, although after half a day's usage I am still fighting the interface.
