MP3 Player

Description

The first mp3 player I owned. I bought it in 2003, before the fad of mp3 players had come in, costing me £45 for a mere 128MB of memory.

The sound quality was poor with quite noticable harmonics on some music.

It eventually died because I accidentally dropped it in a half full cup of tea before going on holiday. When I came back a thick layer of mold had grown on the circuit board and encrusted the LCD. Needless to say, it never did work properly after that. I had to scrub the board and soak it in soap before I took these photoss

The images are pretty rubbish - I took it with my first camera before saving them with a really crappy ammount of JPEG compression.
