Frontier Labs NEX IA 1GB

The Frontier NEX IA 1GB has good features and sound quality, and it's easy to use.

Using double-A alkaline batteries, the NEX IA played for 3 hours 20 minutes. Nickel hydride battery cells rated at 1,400 mAh improved the time to 4:40, which was still the shortest battery life we measured.
