iRiver T60 4GB MP3 Player

iRiver T60 4GB MP3 Player

iRiver’s T60 MP3 Player comes with a design that reminds me of a Toblerone chocolate. The gadget features a mini-joystick knob for music controls and a lovely display screen. It is powered by a single AAA battery. Data transfer is achieved via a miniUSB port. The iRiver T60 retails for approx. $168 (after conversion). TrustedReviews has a comprehensive review of this gadget. Here is the verdict.

There’s no doubting the T60′s musical credentials – it’s right up there with the best in its price bracket and sounds fantastic. The fact that it takes a single AAA battery also makes it a very flexible player for those who want to travel light. But it is quite expensive and there are just a few too many flaws for us to seriously consider recommending it; the lack of USB power for connection being foremost among these. If you’ve got this much money to spend you’d be better off opting for the 2GB iRiver Clix 2 or its 4GB version for a few quid more.
