30 Gb Mp3 Player description
The Neuros HD30GB isn't just an MP3 player--it's a portable digital audio computer, capable of storing thousands of songs, broadcasting them wirelessly to any FM radio, and recording music via either the built-in FM tuner, microphone, or line-in jack. The HD30GB can store 7,500 CD-quality songs (encoded at 128kbps) on its 30 GB hard drive and works seamlessly with the Neuros Synchronization Manager software on your Windows-based PC to synchronize your library and playlist changes. The Neuros HD player includes these exclusive, innovative features:
  • MyFi (My Frequency) digital tuning technology enables convenient wireless high-fidelity playback through any FM radio without wires or connectors. MyFi automatically scans and locates the least populated station available for transmission.
  • HiSi (Hear it, Save it) automatic song identification system records an audio sample from music heard on the radio and converts it to a digital fingerprint for identification and access on the Internet.
  • Neuros Synchronization System (NeurosSync) is the advanced operating system that automates the transfer of music/files from your PC to the Neuros player, and vice versa. It uses the Neuros Synchronization Manager software application as the conduit for information transfer, and allows management of complete PC library, including future downloads, playlist creation, and song deletions from the device itself.
The Neuros interface includes five programmable preset buttons, a large 128 x 128-pixel high-resolution display and a main scroll-button that allows for easy navigation of the userÕs entire music collection. In addition, an amber backlight display allows for clear visibility in daylight as well as low-light conditions.

It's compatible with MP3 VBR, OGG, WAV, and WMA formats, and transfers files via ultra-fast USB 2.0. You can also use the Neuros HD as a mass storage drive, enabling you to carry important documents and presentations. The Neuros HD player is compatible with Windows 98SE, Me, 2000, and XP. The rechargeable, non-replaceable batteries inside Neuros provide 10 hours of continuous playback. Other features include a removable backpace, which supports future hardware upgrades, and automatic firmware and software upgrades.

What's in the Box
Neuros HD30GB, ear bud headphones, belt clip, AC adapter, USB cable, car power adapter, CD-ROM with Neuros Synchronization Manager software, and printed instructions.

♥♥♥♥♥ Neuros Digital Audio Computer (version II) 80GB model
I bought one of these on closeout in the middle of December '05. I had read several articles about people having problems with them, but a guy I worked with owned one and loved his. It seemed to me the reviews were either great or terrible. Since most people don't take time to write good things, I figured I was seeing mostly just the complaints.

After over one week of serious internet searching, I finally decided that this was the best bang for the buck. I emailed Neuros and was told they had a 30 day refund policy if I didn't like it or had any problems with it. Nothing else had the capacity (80GB) or the features. I especially liked the idea of the built in FM modulator.

I have used the heck out of mine for about 3 weeks now and have had no problems. My music collection is over 30GB and it handles it with ease. The supplied software is a little slow when trying to manage the ID3 tags with that large of a collection, but I have used other freeware for managing the tags (GearVolt to be specific) and then used the Neuros software to sync the files with the player.

I have emailed tech support a couple of times with questions and they have gotten right back with me. Even many of the customers that have had problems with their players and are angry still rave about the outstanding customer service.

I feel they may have had some quality issues at a point in time and am hoping that the hardware bugs are worked out (fingers crossed - so far, so good).

If you're the type of person who likes to feel they got the most features for the best price, this unit is for you. Also, there is tons of other software/firmware you can download to improve/change the way the unit functions. Neuros uses an "open source" policy, which means they allow access to their software/firmware for customers, so many of the technical people out there have written their own software/firmware for it. There are even sites that tell you how to swap the hard drive out for a larger unit, or modify the antenna so the FM modulator works from over 125 feet away!

The only negative I can say about it is that it's a bit bulky. However, it was smaller than I expected based on the photos. It's been compared to a "brick" but fits in my hand, so it's not that big. It fits in my shirt pocket, although it is a bit heavy while it's in there.

Overall, a great player for the money. I can carry my COMPLETE CD collection with me all the time and still have 40GB of space for file transfers between computers.

What can I say? I would definitely buy one of these again.
