Frontier Labs L1

 

Company: Frontier Labs America, www.frontierlabsamerica.com Price: $299 direct Spec Data: 6.1 oz.; 20GB; Battery Rundown Time: 7:20; FM Radio; Voice record.

Compact size. Large, legible display. Simple controls. PIM features. Cons: Nonstandard 2.5-mm jacks. Quirky software. Bottom Line: Lots of features for the price, but this player needs polish.
