Jukebox FM Recorder 20

You don't need to be computer-savvy to enjoy the new and preferred music format of the digital generation. In fact, you don't even need a computer.

The exceedingly-achieving Archos Jukebox FM Recorder 20 comes equipped with a whoppingly massive 20 Gigabyte hard drive (for you itinerant music buffs, that's accommodating to roughly 300 CDs) and, more importantly, lets users record and store files directly from any sound source (CD player, tape player, home stereo), including live audio thanks to a built in microphone (good for bootlegging Metallica concerts or recording the guest speaker at the local anti-piracy convention).

What's more, this particular Uber-MP3 Player is also a regular portable FM radio that also allows you to listen to and/or record stuff off the airwaves, right there, in your hand, on-the-fly (holds about 1200 hours worth of broadcasts, to boot). It bilks about 8 - 10 hours out of its onboard rechargeable NiMH batteries (AC adapter/charger is also included) and comes with the appropriate cabling and software for those who choose to inter-connect it with their Windows PC or Mac (were it will also work as an external/portable storage device for digital photos and other files, on top of music and MP3, with data transfer at the lightning speed of the new USB 2.0 standard).
