Flash Based Panasonic SV-MP010 & SV-MP020

panasonic-sv-mp010-mp020.jpg

Panasonic never had a solid distribution base in the United States with their past MP3 players, but that may change. In a US press release it gives the details on two players that will be available this March. The flash player will support MP3 and WMA and feature the easy drag and drop method to load it up with you favorite tunes. At the same time both players will be PlaysForSure compatible and have a nice long 75 hour playback time on a single AA battery.

The difference in the two models is the capacity. The MP010 will have a gig of space while the MP020 will have two gigs of storage. Even though it seems like the they are your average flash player, they are nicely priced at $100 and $150 respectively.

Great! I can't wait after looking at the statistics. Finally, a player with very little to worry about...

How many songs can I put on the MP020?

I own this device, it is AWESOME! It comes with great headphones, it is not troublesome to put songs on it, the sound is actually really great, its light weight, holds about 1.8 gigs of music, which is idk...like 200-300 songs depending on the song length. My only issue is that it is kinda fragile, but if you are careful, mine has lasted me about a year now, I probably shouldn't but I wear it while I work. But it.

abi Editor's Choice
  • SanDisk Sansa Clip
    SanDisk Sansa Clip

    The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.

  • Samsung P3
    Samsung P2

    The Samsung P2 was a success and the P3 is a very welcome and substantial update. Samsung has paid close attention to users on P2 issues and made great strides in addressing and improving most of them. The best feature of the P3 is its native video support. Most content you thow at it will playback without conversion on the great looking screen. Stop by the Samsung P3 forums for more details or check out our indepth P3 review.

    Sure, many of us are not big fans of the walled garden, but there are a lot of great things going on with the Zune- sturdy hardware, ultra easy to use user interface, and a media player that is worthy of editor’s choice. The best part of the Zune is the constant firmware and software updates virtually giving you a new device at each major refresh. You can check out the latest Zune 120 & 16 review or stop by our Zune forums for the latest.

    The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.

  • Phonak Audéo PFE
    Phonak PFE

    Phonak Audéo PFE offer outstanding clarity and precision; natural, dynamic mids and treble, and decent bass for a single armature in-ear phone. They handle dense, complex music very well. The PFE work well with most acoustic and some electronic music genres, but bassheads might have to look at other alternatives. They're great for sports as well, since they fit very securely.
