Summary
The iRiver SlimX 400 fills in the MP3/CD player niche perfectly. For those wanting a little more out of their MP3 player or portable CD player, the SlimX 400 will be a great match. For those wanting features of an MP3 jukebox player complete with categorized albums and play list support without shelling out hundreds of dollars, the SlimX 400 is also a great fit. Remember, most people burn MP3's versus ripping MP3's from a music CD. A 700 MB CD is still a lot of storage capacity and at $199 the SlimX 400 is a great value for everything that is included. The iRiver SlimX 400 CD player is as polished as a portable CD player can get, and it is clear that a lot of research and development went into the creation of the SlimX 400 as it could possibly be the best portable CD player currently on the market.

The SlimX 400 is not only one of the best CD players on the market, but it is also better than most stand alone MP3 players.
