Summary: Great mp3 player!
Review: Great MP3 player! I was listening to songs 20 minutes after taking it out of the package! Great buy. I suggest it to anyone! Very light and definately worth every dollar spent on it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not as bad as all that
Review: I read all of the reviews twice before I bought the Cabo. Upon first reading the reviews, I was sure I didn't want it. Then I read on and compared price and what I was looking for and decided to go for it. I couldn't configure my printer port to ECP so I used the ECP emulation, which is slower but still didn't take long to download the songs. There does seem to be some difficulty with the actual connection. However, I opened the box at 6:00 PM and by 7:30 I was with the Cabo on the treadmill at the gym. I even dropped it as I ran and it didn't skip a beat. Okay, so I've had it less than 24 hours and I'm writing a review. I'm very pleased with it. I'll let you know in a few weeks if I'm still as pleased. One suggestion, the reviews here were worth more than the manual. Print out the ones that have helpful hints. And refer to them when trying to connect.

Summary: Didn't work right out of the box
Review: The headphone jack was not making good enough contact for the headphones to pick up any sound, so of course this makes the unit completely unusable. The company offered to replace the unit or fix it for free, so that is one good thing that came out of this. I was quite surprised, however, that it was broken before I even got to use it.

Summary: The Worst!
Review: I never write reviews but for this product I feel like it's my duty. If I can save one person from wasting their money on this then it will have been worthwhile.

I would say that for 4 out of 5 tries, the cable does not connect to the player. And when it does connect, for some reason, it spontaneously stops working after downloading several tracks. I have tried this 100s of times so this is statistically relevant.

Upon calling ther tech support, the person told me the best thing to do would be to return it to the store of purchase!

Summary: Never worked
Review: I spent too many hours on this little device. Never did get the darn thing working. Trashed my computer in the process (mostly recoverable). Poor documentation on this unit. Sent it back (amazon was great about the return).

Summary: ... for a 64MB player? Save your money!
Review: I have to say that this was the worst purchase I've made in recent memory. After I opened the box, I hooked up the unit and discovered that the parallel cable provided with the player only worked when it felt like it. After over an hour of disconnecting/re-connecting/rebooting my pc, it finally allowed me to transfer music to the player (although mid-transfer the software indicated that the "connection was lost"). After getting some songs on the player I hooked up the headphones only to discover that the headphone jack in the player didn't work. Plug it in all the way and the left earbud works. Pull it out a bit and the right bud works. Unfortunately, there was no position in which both earbuds worked simultaneously. Basically, it ... ...right out of the box. I tried to go to Best Data's website for instructions on shipping the unit back for repairs, but wouldn't you know it, the "contact us" page was not working. I definitely learned my lesson with this unit; I got exactly what I paid for. Q

Summary: Just Plain Stinks
Review: This was my first MP3 player. Of course I was excited (at first!) It took me about a week to get the thing connected. I had to call in for 7 bucks to talk to someone who told me what to do. sure that worked, the first time. The download was extremely slow and when I wanted to use the printer, I had to go down under and re-connect the cables. The sound is good and so is the MB, but I think Best Data could of worked a little harder to make this thing fun!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great deal Great player
Review: This player has several things going for it. It has price, the features are better than average and it is moderately easy to use. It has great compatibility by using smart media cards to add storage. I found this to be a super bargain.

Summary: The Cabo is terrible, The Company (Best Data) is Worse
Review: I got the Cabo as a present....a present from hell. Do not buy this product. It's not so much that the player is crap - when it is working it sounds fine. The major problem is that if you have one you are screwed. The company who puts it out - Best Data - has the worst tech support and customer service that I have ever encountered. They charged me to help me with exactly nothing. What's worse is that you are forced to call them because the manual (best use for it is picking up after your dog) is terrible and their Web site is equally awful. Go with a player that has USB not a damn parrallel port. And Yes I am in ECP mode! Damn thing can't get in connect mode. Yes I went to file and selected connect and list. Still got errors, errors. I am getting a refund. Do not buy anythig from Best Data. You will get screwed, you will pay for horrible tech support, you will say I should have listened to that guy from Amazon.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nice deal
Review: Overall, (I won't go into the stupid hit file then connect and list now) good deal. Sound quality better then expected signal to noise ratio is 90. It's very nice and the features that come with it is a nice package.
