Get in the groove with the Nextar MA933A-5BL digital MP3 player. The compact device supports a host of audio formats, including MP1, MP2, MP3, WMA, and WAV, giving you plenty of options when working out at the gym or commuting to work. Listeners will also dig the MP3 player's multiple playback modes, which include repeat play (one and all tracks), random play, and browse play. And should you need to record an interview or take a few voice notes, the MA933A handles that, too, with a built-in microphone that records into WAV format. After recording, you can easily transcribe the files via such playback options as section repeat and comparison repeat--a must when trying to decipher a hard-to-follow section. Storage-wise, the unit offers 512 MB of flash memory, enough for up to eight hours of MP3 music and 16 hours of WMA audio. The unit's seven-band equalizer, meanwhile, lets you customize your audio options, with natural, rock, pop, classic, jazz, and digital bass boost settings. Add in a dot-matrix LCD display--with seven different backlight colors to keep things interesting and a visual picture menu with individual icons--and you have everything you need for hours of on-the-go audio entertainment. Other details include ID3 tagging, support for multiple languages, a sync lyric function that displays the lyrics to your favorite songs while you listen (requires .LRC files), and a direct USB 2.0 plug that connects directly to your computer--no cable required. The MA933A, which runs for 10 hours on one AAA battery, sports a black housing that measures a mere 4 by 1 by 0.8 inches (W x H x D). The MP3 player is also backed by a 90-day warranty.
