I wonder what would happen when people get all the packages delivered and find this!
Yeah thats right but the title at the website says that only, but in description its mentioned its just an FM tuner.
WHat am I missing? Here is the description and it says at least FIVE times that it is an MP3 player. It also says if "features" an FM tuner. Again, what am I missing here - seems legit to me?
The 2GB MP3 Player from Nextar provides everything you need for music on the go. The attractive and sleek MP3 player features a color screen that displays cover art and photo thumbnails. This MP3 player's easy-to-use interface helps you easily sort and play back your favorite music. With the featured Digital FM tuner and recorder, you can listen to news and sport reports or Hollywood gossip anywhere and anytime. For added convenience, the player comes with a lanyard, stereo headphones.
* Support MP3 and WMA * 7 languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch * Built-in FM tuner and recording * 6 EQ modes include Normal, Pop, Rock, Classical, Jazz & Bass * Playlist function support * High-speed USB 2.0 interface * Upgradable to future formats and features * 4 playmode includes normal, repeat one, repeat all & shuffle * Includes: MP3 Plaer, USB cable, Headphones, Installation disk, user guide & 1 year warranty.
The official site (http://www.nextar.com/frontend/proddetail.asp?pn=MA566&co=10000309) lists the size at
3.30" x 0.98" x 0.71" (inches)
Looks like someone dropped a decimal point. From the pictures, it's clear that it's a roughly USB-stick-sized player, not anything approaching 9"x6".

But the glaring error makes it seem the store pays little attention to details. Thus most likely offers no Customer Service in case of a problem.
Of curiosity I checked the net and many sites have this error. Thus it must originate from the distributor. Some had corrected the error (Amazon for instance). Maybe a translation error about the ability to record FM.
Most sites had it in the $20 range. I found few negatives about it most problems solved by reformating or just replacing the battery. It plays MP3's or WMA's.
I give the deal a big green it is about as good a deal as you will find for this. For $15 with shipping it would be possible but hard to find a better deal.
