it was a whole page in Stuff magasine with about 1/3 of it writing and the bottom half taken up with a large picture of the player...showing it next to its headphones really does put it into perspective...(i'll take a picture if my webcam works...)
okay it said (typing it up as cant find anything on the net):

Hi-Tech gaming dice, eh? Or should that be die? I get so confused...
You, you do, don't you? This whether you chose to believe it or not, is actually an MP3 player. Forget you clunky iPod 'Minis' and Zen 'Micros', this is truly trouserable and can even be worn comfortably around your neck, if you really must.
Super! That looks like a nice screen though
I don't like your tone. Its a very nice screen. It's an OLED affair, which means it has a wider viewing angle than LCD and is also self-luminous, so you don't need a bettery sapping backlight. All in you have the perfect screen for a tiny player like this and you get a 15-hour battery life as a result.
Tiny? Meaning you can store three song on it?
Actually, this has a rather generous 1GB of memory meaning you can slot, ooh, around 250 tracks on it. it supports both WMA and MP3 too so if you believe the claims that WMA at 64Kbps is 'CD Quality', you can slot about twice as many tracks in. You'd like that wouldn't you tone-deaf boy.
You can cut that out, for a start. What about those controls then? Someone's been taking lessons from a certain Mr Ive...
Since Apple got pretty close to perfection with its clickwheel, you can't knock people for 'borrowing' it. A device this small needs a slick interface and this is just the job. Since it doesn't actually scroll it's not 'lifeted' either.
