4. Ibiza Rhapsody (30GB, white)
Editors' rating: 7.7
The good: The Ibiza Rhapsody offers about every feature in the book, including Wi-Fi and stereo Bluetooth capabilities; podcast support with wireless updating; photo, video, and subscription music support; on-the-go access to Rhapsody; updatable themes and wallpapers; even a basic Web browser. It also comes in a variety of colors and is one of the few high-capacity hard-drive players available. It's easy to use, the interface is well-implemented, and the processor is powerful.
The bad: The Ibiza Rhapsody is expensive compared with competitors, and it has copycat looks. It also lacks EQ enhancement options and has a poor rated battery life. Works with XP and Vista only.
The bottom line: The Haier America Ibiza Rhapsody is a cutting-edge media player that puts its wireless capabilities to good use while still retaining a user-friendly design and interface. If you're willing to shell out the dough for a massive feature list, give it consideration.
