Technology has come a long way since the days of dinosaurs and The Flintstones. However, today’s technology isn’t as advanced as The Jetsons yet. But, it probably will be very shortly. Manual typewriters have been replaced with electronic typewriters. Better still electronic typewriters have been replaced by both desktop computers and laptop computers and now there are both home phones and cell phones. Also, today many people can’t live without electronic mails. Moreover, ten years ago media players didn’t exist. Media players work well with many different computers and digital cameras. There are many brands of media players that consumers can and do purchase. There are Creative and iRiver media players and there are Sony and Samsung media players. Samsung portable media players are state of the art.

The sleek and silver Samsung media player stands out from the rest of media players for two reasons. First, the basic design is different from that of most portable video players such as the Creative Zen. The Creative Zen uses a horizontal, Game Boy like design with the screen at the center and both the navigation and the selection button are on the side. The Samsung media player, by contrast, look like a miniature television set with the screen on the top and both the controls and the speaker below it. Second, this media player is much smaller and lighter than the other two portable media players. In addition, the start menu has five basic options from My Television and My Music to My Pictures and My Videos. Plus, there is a My Settings option. Relax because once you drill down into a main menu option, you will be to instantly categorize without much problem. In short, you will have to a Samsung media player in order to understand how it works, but, once you play with it for a bit you will see that you can play music and add song to a play list quickly and easily.

Plus, with the My Photos feature, you can set parameters for slide show presentations and even listen to music while you’re viewing photos.

Samsung portable media players get a good review from CNET editor’s with a 3.5 rating. The only drawback with a Samsung portable media player is that it doesn’t have a great battery.

In the past, many parents have said this to a son or daughter: “You had better change your tune.” At one time that phrase could put an end to a string of complaints. Today, however, a parent needs to think twice before making the aforementioned statement. Today, a young person who hears that statement might view it as a reference to actions that relate to one of the Creative Zen portable media players.

The teen or preteen who has one of those Zen players has little trouble changing his or her tune. Unfortunately for parents, that changed tune is a real tune; it is the tune that is entertaining the teen by coming through the audio system on the Zen player. Teen like to listen to those tunes, while showing off their smart and stylish portable players.

Makers of the Zen media players have designed their gadget so that it possesses eye catching qualities. That player comes in three different colors—black, silver and pink. In addition, the owner of any Player can add a personal touch to its appearance by carrying it in a Zen Mozaic Skin Pack.

The Zen player remains safe in that skin pack, while the owner of the player listens to any number of the tunes that are on the top of the music charts. If a youth hears a really great tune, and wants to share it with a friend, then a new device on the Zen player allows that to happen. Of course, youth today want to share more than tunes with their friends.

Youth today want to be able to share photos with their friends. The owner of a Zen portable player can do just that. Each player has a 1.8 inch screen. Photos that have been saved in the player can be displayed on that screen. A girl who is having a “bad hair day” can show off pictures that highlight her good looks. A guy can use his Player photos to call attention to his most enviable qualities.
