My M500's screen is nice and bright plus the volume can go higher than my ears can stand if I want.
The guy at Radio Shack gave me some cool earbud covers so that the buds would stay in my ears.
I've been experimenting with different rip settings so that
CD's which blend from track... Read full review »

I bought my Motorola M500 at radio Shack which I believe to be the only place you can buy one (bad move Moto…). The player is an ugly greenish color with a removable cell phone type battery (hello iPod), small screen, headphones out, volume control, power button, USB mini port and a... Read full review »

Pros size, sound quality, works as radio and mp3 player
Cons hard to use, hard to read, poor support, too many patches and fixes needed.
Recommended it? No

I got the M500 so that I could enjoy Audible Books, but not have to go through batteries, and be able to store long books all at once. I also really liked the FM receiver, and the ability to record from it.

Well, the first one I got had the same problem as mentioned above. It got stuck... Read full review »

Pros Great product and great customer service.
Cons Replaced earphones.
Recommended it? Yes

I have had my M500 player for 9 months and I still love it. Easy to use. Easy to organize music, play, listen to. I use it while I am working. The M500 has an FM tuner which Ipod did not. It also was a bit less expensive. It clips on my belt. I got an accessory to play it thru any FM tuner and use... Read full review »

Pros Small Size Good Storage FM Radio Cool color
Cons Joystick "sticks" Poor Recording Quality
Recommended it? Yes

I received the M500 for Christmas. I turned it on and it immediately stuck on the radio. Not one of the buttons would do anything. The only way to turn it off was to take out the battery. Even after upgrading the firmware, I still had many problems with the player. So, it goes back.
