IRiver - iFP-180T

Recently we reviewed Creative's MuVo flash MP3 player and praised its minute size and stripped-down simplicity, which we felt more than compensated for the lack of frills like an LCD display. It made us think about ...

iRiver iFP-180T Review

I think if I were going to work at a hardware company it would be iRiver - maybe Bantam. A cushy job at a larger outfit might pay more, but I generall...
