Comments on: Iriver's feature-packed and ultracompact E50 MP3 player

The Iriver E50 may not be the most exciting thing to come out of CES 2009, but it's a feature-packed MP3 player that comes in an ultracompact package--and that has to count for something.

Looks good to me. But as I say with any music player out there: what's the price? With the iPod out there on the market (and the Zune trying to make a move and succeeding to a small degree), really the price is what matters. If it's a deal compared to the iPod, they'll consider buying it, otherwise it just won't happen. But I like the look of this one with the brushed metal, and I think the controls built in look good.

Iriver was all hush-hush about pricing. Boo.

Hmm I like this simple design, EQ settings. I'm going to buy my new mp3 but don't know what to choose. This seems to be very nice to me which supports for MP3, WMA, OGG, FLAC, and ASF audio_ this could be the advantage i guess. By the way, has this Bluetooth function? I need that function so much!

About CES

The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is the world's largest consumer electronics trade show. CES 2009 is scheduled for January 8 through 11 in Las Vegas, and it will feature thousands of exhibitors showcasing their latest tech products. CNET's team of reporters and reviewers will be at the show, covering technology's heavy hitters and previewing thousands of products before they are released to the public.

Each year, CNET, in partnership with the Consumer Electronics Association, produces the Best of CES awards at the International Consumer Electronics Show. The CNET editorial team recognizes the best new products at the show with awards in 10 categories, an overall Best of Show award, and the People's Voice award, which is selected by CNET's online audience.
