Amazon.com Product Description
The remarkable 1 GB iRiver U10 features an eye-catching, direct-click interface that makes it easy to fly through your media collection and find the right song, video, photo, or game. The U10 has a vivid 2.2-inch LCD screen for watching videos and playing Flash-based games. It supports MP3s, WMAs, ASF, OGG, JPG, and Flash Lite 1.1 files as well as MPEG-4 SP video at 320 x 240 pixels (QVGA). Plus, the iRiver U10 supports Microsoft Windows Media Player 10 and is compatible with a variety of online music stores and subscription services. It also features an FM tuner with recording and alarm functions. Measuring just 2.7 by 1.8 by 0.6 inches and weighing a mere 2.5 ounces, the U10 is about the size of a business card. The U10 plays MPEG-4 Simple Profile (SP) files up to 320 x 240 pixels in size (encoded at a maximum of 384kbps and 15 frames per second, with audio encoded in MP3 up to 128kbps). Video can be converted with a free, downloadable utility called iRiverter. 
It's so small, you can literally fit the U10 in the palm of your hand. | The centerpiece of the U10 is its brilliant 2.2-inch color display, which also doubles up as the control interface. Unlike the touchscreens normally used on PDAs, the U10's "direct click" feature responds to gentle pressure from the fingertip, eliminating the need for pens and control keys. A built-in microphone also makes the iRiver U10 an ultracompact dictation machine. Recording quality is freely selectable and is controlled automatically. A built-in FM tuner, complete with real-time clock and timer-controlled recording function, delivers perfect radio sound on the move. It also includes six Macromedia Flash Lite games, including Launch Fighters (a Space Invaders remake), Log Jam, Barn Baron flying game, and Sudoku. Files are transferred via super-fast USB 2.0, and the U10 is compatible with Windows XP SP1 operating systems. It offers 10 EQ settings along with a user-defined EQ setting, and it offers SRS WOW virtual surround sound for a 3-D soundscape and superior bass. The internal, rechargeable lithium-polymer battery provides up to 28 hours of playback battery life, and it is recharged when connected to a PC via the included USB cable. Optional Cradle
With the U10's optional cradle, even more possibilities open up as the U10 combines with the FM tuner to provide a full-fledged multimedia alarm clock. It even includes a traditional snooze button for five minutes of extra sleep. When the U10 is sitting in its cradle, the line-in can hook up to other audio sources. Music from the stereo system, for example, can be MP3-encoded in real time and stored on the player. The cradle also includes a remote control. What's in the Box
iRiver U10 1 GB media player, stereo earphones, USB 2.0 cable, printed operating instructions, CD-ROM with installation software, preloaded music tracks from eMusic, and preloaded Macromedia Flash Lite games.

 Excellent device... December 14, 2007
iriver u10 is an excellent device and has features that no other mp3 player can have all together.
Some of the features I love:
-built-in radio (ipod or similar doesn't have)
-record sound/radio/linein directly to mp3 (amazing..., can record hours and hours...)
-video
-connect as a usb storage and you have the freedom to directly copy/rename/delete any file in it as its another folder in your computer! And you are not bound to an application such as itunes...
-have different settings for song listings (such as list artists, albums, titles) BUT my favorite is that, it allows also you to browse the filename lists (not available in ipod) as in your computer. This is best if your mp3 tags are not well organized!!
-Memory is flashram, so no need for extra careful handling
-and finally; battery life is really long...
only problem might be the capacity (1gb). If you are the one that want to carry all his audio in a device, go for a hdd based device... Otherwise, enjoy u10...
 Good Video + Audio Hard to Install February 18, 2007
Had problems installing and attaching the U10 with Window Media player 10. Called the help desk and it took 3 tries to get someone that Knew how to handle the installation. Most of the people on the help desk have no idea how to help. They told me to return the product and get a new one that had the same problem. Had to make a change to the regastry. Then it worked as promised. However, I had to reinstall the operating system and loaded Windows Media Player 11 and the devise work just by plugging it in to the URL.
Earphones are cheap so I replace them and the music sounds great. Pictures show up chrisp and clear. Games are lame. And I have not been able to convert the anything to the required video format.
Pictures and video need their own utility to download.
The ability to use the frame around the unit to for most of the controls is east to use following the promts that show on the screen.

I bought a 512mb model u10 right after if came out and after about 8 months began to have problems with it deleting songs on its own, or when I would delete them the songs name would stay in my playlist and would stop playing whenever it came to the song. I have another u10 which is the 1GB model and after about 8 months it is doing the same thing, I wouldn't advise anyone to buy an iRiver product and if you have one take it back now because it will self destruct. IRiver isn't the only company who seems to have problems with their MP3 players lifespan, average life of a much more expensive IPod is only 18 months. Until someone steps in and insists these electronic companies make a reliable product I am sticking with the cheaper products that services like Napster and Urge offer.

I bought this for my wife for Christmas, and she loves it. It has a large screen for its size with excellent resolution. The interface is well designed and easy to navigate, and it is quite simple to load it with music, videos, images, etc. The shipping was fast and everything arrived as advertised.
