Digital Innovations' Neuros
 

Was wondering if anyone knows someone who owns a Neuros MP3 player. It's gonna be about time for me to upgrade when I get home, and am doing some looking around.

Here's a review of the 20-gig version, which sells for $400. About the same as an iPod, but it has a built-in FM receiver, plus a couple other neat tricks.. if you hear a song on the radio you like, push a button and it records a sample of it. The next time you sync with your computer, it searches their database to find the name of the track and artist. I can't tell you how many times this feature would have rocked my world. Plus, you can broadcast your MP3's over FM to a nearby stereo. That sure solves the MP3-in-the-car problem.

The only problem is that it's USB 1.1, but the USB 2.0 version will be out by the time I'm home. The other biggie, of course, is that I've never heard of the company, so the cool identify-the-song feature might go away, or they may start charging for it.

BTW, here's the website if anyone cares.
