The pricey iRiver U10 is a superbly designed MP3 player that is both easy to use and packed with pretty much every feature in the book. But Apple won't be quaking in its boots until iRiver ups its capacity to 2GB and 4GB.
A terrific-sounding player, and many will find the use of AAA batteries handy. But the very low-resolution screen doesn't impress and navigating the thing can be tricky at times.
The iRiver H10 isn't perfect by any means, but its advanced features, useful touch pad, and nice colour screen keep it on a par with similarly priced competition.
We'll step you through how to upgrade the firmware on some of the most popular MP3 players, so there'll be no excuses not to have the latest and greatest feature set available.
