The MP3/WMA player features a stylish lanyard with integrated earbuds and is designed to be worn around the neck. You can also reduce the player's size by detaching its lanyard cap, turning the N10 into a handheld or pocket device. The mirror-finish, high-resolution screen displays lots of pertinent information as well as a variety of graphically pleasing screensavers. These include a level meter, bolts of lightning or a little dancing figure that gyrates to the beat.
Additional features include a sound-activated voice recorder, six EQ presets, a 3D sound mode and a clock. We'd love to see better battery life -- it's rated at 11 hours per charge -- and the 512MB version comes with a stiff AU$499 price. USB 2.0 would have been nice, too, as well as a 1GB version. Nevertheless, the jewel-like N10 scores major fashion points.
