It is 3.8" x 2.4" x 0.5" hence only slightly bigger than an Apple iPod Mini. But you get a 40GB harddrive with it! Before, I thought I would only consider an iPod as the right investment for a MP3 player. But since many iPod Mini owners have recently complained about several issues (such as clicking noises of the harddrive), it might be a good idea to check what the competition is doing. The SA1500 looks definitely good to me! |

Read the full story at Newsfactor. Alas, as far as I know, only business- and first-class jet-setters can currently surf the Net on the plane (for 20 to 25 bucks an hour).[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][/font] But I am convinced there will a time when Wi-Fi access on the plane becomes a basic commodity such as a can of soda. Good times are ahead! |
