Mia Culpa!
I will admit when I'm wrong, and, apparently, I was wrong about this MP3 player.
A couple of months after I purchased the Ultra Hydra 1GB MP3 player, I suddenly and for no apparent reason began to have problems connecting the player to either of my laptops via the USB connection; no matter how long I waited, the player would not load in Windows Explorer as a valid USB drive.
I called Ultra Products Tech Support and followed all their suggestions (taking out the battery, try...

Make sure you check for firmware upgrades
Right now this product does not have a "resume" feature, which to me is a must for an MP3 player unless you only listen to short songs - and don't listen to spoken-word programs or books-via-MP3.

Great Water Resistant Player
Love it. The sound is great. I have not had any problems with it at all and I take it on my boat and to the beach without fear.
Best 1 GB player I have seen.

Garbage!!! Don't waste your money!
Purchased this MP3 player through TigerDirect.com.
I had to reformat it after only 1 day because it has a glitch that puts it in permanent wait mode until it's reformatted. Even then it took me almost an hour to do it, because it put the computer on wait mode, too! Ridiculous!!!
If that wasn't bad enough, the increase volume button stopped working after 3 days. We were able to turn the volume down to 00 (mute) but had no way of increasing the volume, because the button doesn...

Great Little Player, A few Small complaints
I bought this little 1GB player for a trip because the Sony MP3 player I have can only be charged via a computer, and I won't be traveling with my laptop. That said, this thing is tiny, weighs nothing, and since it runs on AAA batteries, is great for travel. However, I quickly learned that you can only "lock" the keys while it's playing, and since the buttons on it are very easily pressed, the thing often runs through a battery while in my gym bag! I've started removing the battery when I'm not...

Breaks a lot
I've had three or four of these, three of them were gotten under warranty when they product stopped working. They work fine for about a year, then something seems to happen either with the software or the transmission of power between the battery and the device. I was so tired of sending them back that I went and bought another brand of MP3 player.
On the plus side, and the reason I give it a two instead of one stars is that it really had good sound quality. Also, it was the perfec...
