Q1 Ultra Organizer

 

Q1 Ultra Organizer

Contrary to the Samsung Web Site, this organizer will not fit all the Q1's, it is sized for the thinner Q1's ... The Q1UP-XP is way too thick for the holder!!! If you have a Q1 1" or thicker, I would recommend that you wait until Samsung figures it...

Beautiful device, amazing sound quality

 

The navigation buttons (tap pad) on this player are very nice with a cool blue glow. The screen is bigger than expected, especially nice to watch videos.FM Radio, photo viewer, games.... it has a lot of functionality but so does everyone.
