iRiver Spinn Review - Pocketables

iriver-SPINN-Pocketables.jpg

Pocketables have published a review of the iRiver Spinn media player. 'Truth be told, the SPINN should've been called the TURNN. The metal wheel doesn't really spin; it turns (in both directions) and clicks as it passes over 12 hidden notches/grooves. Turning isn't quite as fun as freely spinning, perhaps, but it allows for quick yet controlled scrolling. The entire wheel also doubles as a giant OK button. A quick press selects an item, while a press and hold performs one of five Smart Key operations: displaying the "Now Playing" screen, playing/pausing, switching the display orientation, starting/stopping recording, or turning the display on/off. When the player is in hold mode, the wheel can also be used to control the volume.'
