Rating: - Great MP3 Player
I purchased this as a gift for my daughter. It works great in every way. It's also a lot of memory for a great price! We have already loaded over 300 songs and still have almost half the memory free. The only negative I would have is that it is a little hard to power up. You sometimes have to hold the power button down hard to get it to start.

Great player for joggers as it has flash memory which is immuned to shock. I like the replaceable battery and small size. The 2 gig is a nice capacity.
Rating: - Just okay
I have a few other flash players and, in comparison, this is the poorest purchase. I bought it because it plays audible and fits a niche between my 1g players and my much larger ones. The sound of the music is comparable to the other players.
The cons for me are as follows:
1. I always lock my player both while listening and while off. The muvo's lock is in the settings section rather than being a simple switch. That makes it inconvenient to lock quickly.
2. Transferring files to the muvo takes much longer than with the other players.
3. The usb needs to connect directly to the computer- not to a hub. It's thicker than a regular usb connection. On my computer the way the usb ports are set up, it took up two slots.
4. The navigation system is similar to the one on my Iriver t10 but not as stable.
5. A minor complaint is that it came with no case or arm strap. The size is comparable to the Iriver t10 and to the Sansa both of which come with cases.
For someone who is new to mp3 players, I would recommend the comparably prices Sansa m250. It is far simpler to use and has similar features with fewer negatives.
An update:
I've been using this player now for a few months. Far from growing on me, I am even more unhappy with it. I'd lower my rating if I could. I alternate between this and my older 1GB Sansa. It takes 20 minutes to transfer 1 book to the Muvo and 5 minutes for the same files with the Sansa. Possibly the Muvo still uses the defunct 1.1USB format.
The 2GB version of my Sansa is the same price as this player and is a far better player. It also has a radio and voice recorder. SanDisk SDMX3-2048 Sansa M250 2 GB MP3 Player (Black)
