    I'd be surprised if anyone every paid £119 for this.

    It might be worth £14.99, but I'd read the reviews first : two stars from both.
    Not been overly impressed with the Diva IXEL model - headphone port has become faulty after just 3months of casual use - and although you do get 1GB of space for a good price - theres no way of navigating folders/mp3s except by hitting the "next" button... Sound quality was fine, and the voice recording feature is very good though, encoding directly to mp3 was unexpected.
    Purchased the DIVA IXEL as a birthday present, apparently good value for 1GB of storage. However, I probably should have taken more notice of the previous Reviewers comments, where he stated there was no obvious support for folders or sensible navigation between tracks. Quite true - my wife found all the controls difficult to navigate - the Menu selection methods never seem consistent. Decided to return it after 1 day.

    i think its pointless to say what the RRP is for these players now they have price dropped so much however I can believe they were once that price.

    My first player in 2002 was £180... and it was only 512MB.
