The Qoolqee i definitely obliterates the Shuffle

Qoolqee i Hands-on

We played with this cool Korean Qoolqee Mp3 player. We love the form factor, it has its own personality and is very appealing with its rounded shapes, unlike the many boxy audio players out there (iPod Shuffle, Creative Zen, iRiver…). It has a very organic look that is supposed to remind users of the letter “i”. All the basic audio functions in the user interface are easy to use. The top of the device has a knob that handles the majority of the controls. For more advanced functions you need to use also the 4 other buttons on the sides and read the documentation provided in several languages.

The tiny screen provides a sufficient interface and allows browsing of the audio files with ease. The Qoolqee “i” supports the most popular audio formats: MP3, WMA, OGG.

Unlike the iPod Series, it has a built in FM tuner with up to 18 preset stations, which we like, especially at the gym, where the TV channels are broadcasted in FM. It is possible to record the FM Radio or use the Qoolqee as a Dictaphone that encodes directly in MP3 format. You can even schedule a recording thanks to the internal clock (spy gadget?). The sound quality is very good with the default headphones that come in the box. When the music is playing, the bright blue LED and the LCD equalizer pulse in rhythm. Talking about equalizer, there are 8 preset and 2 user-defined EQ.

Misc features: A-B Repeat for studying languages, time skip function, Media Sync - lyrics supported, multiple languages supported (set it to English unless you read Korean!), and alarm clock. There are so many features in this small gadget.

This cool MP3 player comes in 5 color schemes: red/ silver, black/yellow, green/silver, black/silver, gray silver. The only place that seems to sell it in the western world is Blahdvd.com

Excuse me people, just wondering if anyone has heard of this software which is available at motounlockuk.com.
Apparently you can unlock Motorola mobile phones simply using the IMEI number, cutting out the need for a USB cable to link your phone to your PC. Just used it with my razr v3 and a rokr e1, and it certainly works, but what do i do now with an unlocked phone?
It's for sale at 5 Pounds (UK), and i was wondering whether anyone had used it before. Sorry if i've posted in the wrong section!. Please Help!!

Hi all you audiophiles. Kim's Mediatronics has the Qoolkee i and K7 at their store. They are the first store in the U.S. to sell it and it is selling like hot cakes. Give them a call at 201-798-8008.
