Price Paid:  $300.00 from www.shoptoshiba.com

Summary:
When you first take it out of it's box it looks a little chunky, but once you get past that it's really nice looking. The processor can sometimes be a little slow, but I mean lets face it so can the ipod. Even though it's the same price as the 5GB iPod I would choose this puppy, sure the iPod's a little smaller but the removeable hard drive takes the cookie for me, there's even talk that Toshiba will soon be releasing a 10GB card. The software is...windows software, thats all I have to say, but if you're buying an mp3 player for the software then I think it's safe to say the iPod beats out everyone else. The sounds quality on this thing is even better than the iPod, it's amazing, the BassXpander really makes a huge difference too. I think it's a real competitor for the iPod and overall a good buy

Strengths:
-Removeable HDD -Toshiba BassXpander

Weaknesses:
-Windows Software -Sometimes Slow Processor
