Cigarette-lighter socket MP3 player needed.

[Peter Jason]

I have just bought a "Shintaro USB MP3"
player, which plugs in to the car's
cigarette-lighter socket.

I got it working by downloading some of my
MP3 files on to a flash drive, which I
plugged in to the unit.

The quality of the sound is faint and
terrible, and I wonder if anyone has had
experience with this unit, and if there is a
work-around.

If not, is there a high-quality alternative
available?

I've heard of a device called an "iPod" which appears to work well...

Hi Peter,

A friend just showed me one at the lake and it sounds OK for recorded
"talk", but when he tried playing his favourate Country Songs, the
quality gave me cause to shed a few tears. He says he can get them
for $20.00, what did you pay for yours?
