Huge color screen. Dozens of options. Works easily with Windows Media Player 10. Entertaining screen animations

Heavy harmonic distortion on all EQ settings. Inconvenient menu structure. Transfers music only via dock

The Toshiba gigabeat MEG-F60S has more bells and whistles than an ice cream truck. And although there is lots of storage here, the player has serious sonic flaws on everything but flat EQ.

Toshiba Gigabeat F60 (60GB)

 

The world's first MP3 player with a 1.8-inch 60GB drive looks nice from this side of the Pacific.

Toshiba gigabeat PMC

 

Good things come in small packages with Toshiba's Gigabeat S60 Portable Media Player.

As iPod competitors go, the gigabeat is a very solid option - probably the best of the current competition. The gigabeat is a sleek little player that delivers on its promised features. If you're okay being tied to Windows, and Media Player 10, this...

Toshiba Gigabeat F60

 

Toshiba Gigabeat F60

High-res, colourful display for photos and album art. Customisable screen themes and wallpaper. Solid design with brushed aluminium faceplate. Massive storage capacity.

Plus-sign navigation fails to impress. Slow, clunky PC software included.

Although Toshiba's first attempt at a hard disk-based MP3 player has great quality sound and a beautiful display, the overall experience with the Gigabeat F60 is marred by sub-par synchronisation software and navigation quirks.

Consumer review (epinions.com)

Decent.

 

This is my 4th GPS. 2 Garmins. 1 Tom Tom (short time only). Now Mio. I use my GPS religiously as my sense of direction is terrible, almost handicap-like. And my profession requires meeting lots of clients. At least 4 years with a GPS now so I'm pretty ...

SiRFstar III. Text to Speech. Low Price. Compact

Weak volume. Instruction manual. Inefficient routing avoids highway sometimes

Mio c230 GPS is WELL WORTH the 149.99 at Radio Shack!

 

First, make sure you read DCannon's review... I couldn't have written a better or more accurate review if I tried- they are 100 percent accurate in everything they wrote and clearly a very detailed review like that deserves some credit- KUDOS to...

TTS speaks most street names very clearly. Unit offers so much more for the money

No easy way to save a folder or a list of your personal places

Don't Buy this GPS Receiver

 

As a GPS receiver it appears to work fine; however, it simply lacks a convenient user interface. Simply put, the design of the database is useless. Specifically the Point of Interest (POI) database can NOT be searched by category. In essence, if you'd ...

Big screen and voice to text

Completely useless as a GPS receiver

Absolutely Great Video

 

I bought this primarily to transfer recorded Tivo programs to it so i could save and watch shows on the go. For this, it is superb. I have had no problems what-so-ever. I have read other reviews that had connection problems with the device not being ...

Excellent video and navigation. Easy to use

Time consuming video transfer
