Summary: Deceptive descriptions
Review: The previous reviewer is correct; this is a product which is badly misrepresented and a definite under-performer. Besides its cheap construction, the manual is terribly translated (can't the company afford anyone who actually speaks English?) and Boomgear's website is even more mistleading than Amazon's. There is no Text-to-Speech function to the unit. Files cannot be directly encoded to mp3. Although there is a "3D" equalizer setting, it is not the familiar SRS/WOW, as advertised. The controls are perhaps necessarily tiny but counter-intuitive. Non-music files do not show up on the LED directory, and you must use a cable to connect it to your computer (it is not a USB flashdrive, even if it looks very similar). Lastly, the unit is vastly overpriced for its quality.

Oh, it does sound fine--but that's not enough to stop me from returning this product to Amazon for a refund. I don't like being tricked!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Terrible Documentation, Inaccurate Feature List
Review: This device has some serious problems. First, the manual is poorly written, and second it lies about the features it has! It says it is a direct MP3 encoder, but it isn't. It records into another format that you can convert on your PC into an MP3 with the included software. You can't even listen to the files without hooking it up to a PC, uploading, and then converting.

Be warned. This product is not very good.
