The D-Link DMP-100 is a cool looking state of the art see-though MP3 player with an
integrated voice recorder. You can listen to your favorite tunes while you're on the
go or just sitting still. Like all MP3 players there are no moving parts, therefore your
music will never skip. Another benefit is battery life. When the battery don't have
anything to spin, it tends to last a long time. You can expect the two included AAA
batteries to last non stop for over 10 hours before you have to change them. Try that with
a portable CD player.
The DMP-100 comes with a full 32MB of memory built in. This should be enough for about
eight songs. Not enough you say? No problem. The DMP-100 is expandable via SmartMedia
cards. There is a slot at the back of the unit to insert the SmartMedia, allowing you to
expand the memory by whatever size your SmartMedia card is.
The DMP-100 features a tunable equalizer. There is also an integrated voice
recorder to let you record ideas, memos, or even full lectures. With the standard 32 meg
memory, you can record over two hours of talk. With download and upload capabilities, not
only will it store your favorite MP3s, but you can use it to store any Windows files and
transfer them between two computers. It will even save your recordings to your PC as a
wave file.
With a retail price of $179, the DMP-100 is near the lower end MP3 player scale.
How does it compare? Let's find out.
