DMP-110 MP3 player
The
software bundled includes the program for transferring music
to the player and some extra programs from MusicMatch, these
programs come in handy for ripping songs from your CDs and
also for converting WAV files and such to MP3 format.
The
coolest thing about the software included is that the D-Link
program will let you transfer songs in both ways, that is,
from your hard drive to the player and vice versa. That means
you can transfer your songs from one computer to another with
no extra work, that’s something I couldn’t do with my Rio.
The
output quality was really good, not something special but on
par with the best MP3 players available now, volume level was
good but pretty much as most of the players I’ve had the
opportunity to play with… bundled headphones just doesn’t
make justice to the device you are paying for, if you want to
enjoy of all the output quality the DMP-110 can give you, then
don’t think about it twice and buy a better set of
headphones.
Conclusion
I must
recommend you, unless you’re on a really tight budget and
want a MP3 player, 32mb isn’t the minimum you should
consider getting but 64mb, once you have the player you will
really feel the need for more storage capacity and the 32mb
won’t satisfy anyone, unless you intend on listening to
music in a very poor bit rate, which is unlikely.
Now, if
you have already got some SmartMedia memory you could also use
for the player, then going for the DMP-110 isn’t a bad deal
considering the low price ($ 104 or less), but if that’s not
the case and you’re going for a D-Link product then I would
suggest the DMP-120 which is pretty much the same but with
double the memory.
In general
terms, the D-Link DMP-110 does a fairly good job as a MP3
player; I wouldn’t consider it a “Deluxe” player but it
has got all the basic features you’ll ever need and more to
go, for example, the voice recording feature is neat, indeed.
It’s not
an overpriced product (there are a few of those out there) and
is probably the perfect thing to get if you don’t mind about
the little capacity but the quick way you can get portable
music out from your MP3 collection… I would say this is
definitely a PC Enthusiast device.
