Does the jobSeptember 23, 2008 4 stars because it does everything I wanted it to. That's not to say it's the best one on the market. A little 'tinny' build-wise but for the price that's to be expected. The only thing it wouldn't do that I wanted is display the song names on the radio. This is NOT a problem with the unit, rather a feature of the built in Ford radio system which has a TEXT button but only for CD's, when in FM mode the TEXT button is a station preset.
By far the best feature of this device is the abiility to remember which track is being played at power down. It even seems to remember if the memory stick is removed and then put back in.
The Soundfly SD is a cool little device.September 21, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It works well with most of the media that it is built to use. I am currently using a PNY 4gb SDHC card. It handles both SD and SDHC. The Soundfly SD works well with Windows Media Player sync option as long as you allow Windows Media player convert the files. If you don't convert the files you will get a lot of what sounds like static. I am not sure if it is a Windows Media player thing or not, as that is the only Sync program I have.
The reason I bought this is; I can be in as much as 4 different vehicles per day and to have a little device like this that I can just plug in to a 12 volt outlet, tune the radio to my preset frequency and have tunes is well worth the price.
What I would love to see in the future is; to have the Soundfly SD handle an unlimited amount of files so when they some out with a 120gb SD card it will read all the files, but for now I will have to use a few different SDHC cards (which you can buy for less per album than a CDR and much more convenient than having all those CDs to carry). Update: It took a while to find out, If you are using the Soundfly SD to play Albums that you sync to the SD card the device will only read 20 albums and will ignore the rest on the card so it wouldn't do much good to buy more than a 2gb sound card as that would hold about 20 albums.
The worst FM transmitter in the marketSeptember 18, 2008 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
Waste of money! Never ever think of buying this product. Even though it says it can do a strong Fm transmission in various FM frequencies, it works with only one frequency.
The FM transmission quality is so bad. You get a lot of disturbance.
I had been using another FM transmitter/mp3 player for the past 3 months, i bought that for $12!!, i bought the soundfly since my old player did not had the folder-shift option but i made a wrong decision. This product is worth only $2, not $34.
If you are lucky, the remote will work.
Great deviceSeptember 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Initially I could not get this to work with my Zune, but it's easy as pie. I just didn't plug in the other cord. I was a little miffed as to why I did not need to plug in the Zune USB cable, but I figured it out.
Aside from the audio quality (a bit less than CD quality, which is perfectly acceptable), this device functions as described.
Better than expected, deliversSeptember 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This player is exactly what I wanted and needed, and works like a charm. Contrary to other reviews, directory structure doesn't seem to matter - but it does state it has a 20 directory limit (in root folder) and also can only read a maximum of 999 files. It works also with portable USB hard disks, but I see no point to this. 999 files x average of 4 MB per song = roughly 4 GB, so cheap 4GB flashdrives it is for me (really, the only way you can overshoot the 4 GB range with 999 files is by having large files - either with high bitrate or long tracks, like audiobooks... so if you're going to use lots of audiobooks, a portable USB HD may be the way to go.) Max HD capacity recognized is 32 GB, FAT32. Anyway, I love that it broadcasts track info, has several display options, etc. Great features, they all work, and I am happy (much happier than I ever was with my VR3 VRFM8R, which died after 6 months). Get this one for a cheap, working, nice solution to your needs!
