"If the Creative Zen Micro is the "good" of new 5GB MP3 players then the Virgin Player seems to be both the "bad" and the "ugly". It doesn't look like anything special, too much un-shiny plastic, the navigation isn't very good, and at the end of the day to my eyes it's just not sexy in the way that the iPod mini is. I do like the dual headphone socket features but at the end of the day that's about all this MP3 player has going for it."



Shiny Plastic has a couple great looks at the new Virgin Player. Its an interesting device, but interesting won't beat the iPod mini.

But don't you see?!?!?! It is the next iPod killer!!!!!

(Maybe a bludgining death to the iPod but the metal casing on the mini is tough, would take more then a couple swings)
