5 out of 5 stars Far improved, The P2 is Almost Perfect.   December 22, 2008
D. Brown (Kansas)
The P2 is now using version 5.10 firmware, which enables voice recording, custom user interfaces, gameplay over bluetooth between devices, Phone pairing, two simultaneous bluetooth headset connections, and far more. Emodio is not yet perfect, but far improved from where it started. You can download a thorough user manual if you miss the one that comes on the included CD. I have both a P2 and an ipod Touch, and the P2 is the device I prefer for music. It's interface is more efficient and uses taps,double taps, touches, strokes and arcs on the screen for various functions. It has the best Bluetooth implementation I've encountered. No other player I've found supports more than a single headset connection.

You can find that user manual at: [...]



3 out of 5 stars Great Hardware - Stone Age Software - No Intelligable Manual   December 2, 2008
Donald A. Ostrower (Long Island, NY, USA)

I purchased this (to replace my 80 GB IPOD Classic) from England earlier this year since the 16 GB model was not then sold in the US. The principal reason was the built in Bluetooth 2.0 (still not available for the IPOD). Added bonuses were the very light weight, and the FM Radio and replaceable battery (neither available in IPOD).

The hardware is magnificent.

Unfortunately hardware doesn't work without software and the software ("Emodio") is many generations behind ITunes. There is no meaningful users manual on line or in print and third parties have yet to produce a manual for the YP. The bottom line is the IPOD is much much more user friendly than YP.

But for the absence of built in Bluetooth, the IPOD Touch is a much better choice. (If you must have Bluetooth there really is no choice since to use IPOD with Bluetooth you must plug in a dongle which you must remove (and probably lose) when you plug in to recharge the IPOD.

Hopefully, in time Samsung will improve Emodio and someone will produce the Missing Manual.
