Exercise 5 - Kay Lee



An object I love is LG FM30 portable multimedia player with Audio-Technica portable headphones. (click on the image to see the specs) The reason I put them together is because they function best with each other. Their goodness diminishes in the absence of any one of them.

FM30 is a compact sized mp3p that is also able to store videos, texts, and pictures. Its OLED display has a lower resolution than TFT-LCD yet it saves the power a lot. Yea, one of the greatest advantages of this tiny gadget is the battery life. I've never used the battery charger since I bought it. It's being charged while it's connected to the computer for transffering songs, and it does last a couple of weeks. Its simply designed display occupies the front view of the body, and the rest of the space is utilized smartly. The main control buttons are on the top of it with other buttons or devices arrayed on the sides. Its compact body is easy to grasp, convenient to carry, and clear to see how it works.





Here we go, everyone's beloved iPod.
However, it's on my dishonourable list.

Good Mapping, Defective Functionality
While a lot of minor enterprises were introducing numerous models of mp3p in local or national
markets, Apple introduced this fresh looking iPod in global market. Thanks to its brand power in addition to the innovative design and intuitive interface, (and personal engraving too!) iPod heated up the American market quickly. When the iPod Mini first came out in 2004, I was one of the excited buyers until it disappointed me from the first day I received it. Its outer appearance was really cool.. the sensitive wheel was sexy too. On the first day I got it, it didn't turn on for some reason, and it never lasted 8 hrs. It randomly shut off after 2 hrs of playing, when I walked into subway, etc. Although I really liked the colour and the way it feels in my hand, it was comparatively bigger than other mp3ps and slippery too.
