 I LOVE THIS THING !!! June 14, 2008
This thing is so cool. I wish it had a slot for a memory card, and I would prefer a neckband headset similar to Motorola's Motorokr, but otherwise two thumbs up!
 RCA products always have "issues"! April 11, 2008

RCA does not stand behind is product. I bought an MP3 that they admit is deffective but they will charge me $62 for a replacement when I paid $59 for it at a local store!
Glad I waited - RCA jet stream is worth it March 28, 2008
I had this shipped to me here in the UK as it was just reviewed in a gadget mag and it looked like what I was after. I have never had an MP3 player before and never wanted the whole i-pod thing. I am doing a 26 mile walk for charity and wanted something that was not too cumbersome - love those wireless headphones and would last the distance (14 hours battery time) 340 songs is plenty for what I want it for.
Its easy to use, I would say that it works better with the arm band rather than the wrist band, so it obvisouly helps to be nearer for better clarity.
I am really enjoying using it at the moment - and the pedometer is actually quite accurate - considering it is on your arm, as opossed to your hip.
Can't wait to take it with me on my moonwalk in May - if anyone wants to help me raise loads for breast cancer then please email me for details - you can donate on line.
Great product, glad I waited til I found an mp3 player that is so me.
 Good product with a couple issues March 10, 2008

Overall, I am happy with my purchase, even if there are a couple of issues. The sound is good, although when I use it at the gym, I need to have the volume all the way up in order to drown out the gym music. I think that's because the ear buds on the wireless headphones don't fit properly in my ears. They are a littl big. But outside of the gym, walking for example, I don't need the volume up nearly that high.
The largest fault I have with this product is the charger for the wireless headphones. They don't work all that well, in that the connection is touchy and it takes a few minutes for me to be sure they are charging and quite often the charge is not complete. I'm considering having the wireless charger replaced if possible...
The reception with the wireless headphones is good, although I've experienced some static when I have the unit in my pocket at the gym, and I am riding the recumbent bike. When I am lifting weights though, I experience no issues with reception with it in my pocket. And also when walking outside, there is perfect reception.
The battery life on the unit itself is fantastic. I can use it for three weeks without having to recharge it (using it only about an hour or two a day).
If you are a music fanatic, the storage is probably small for most people. For me it is perfect...I have about 200 songs on there plus two hour long podcasts.
My biggest frustration is the FF or RW function, which may be present on other MP3 players as well. If I am 30 minutes into a podcast for example and missed something, I need to be very careful how I rewind or it will go all the way back to the beginning and the only way I know to get it back to where I was is to just hold the Forward button down, which takes quite a while to FF back to the place where I was.
I don't have any experience with any other MP3 players, as this is my first one. But I wanted it for the wireless functionality and I am overall very happy with it's performance. Even with the issues I stated above, had I been able to try this before purchasing, I still would have purchased this unit.
needs lots of improvements February 23, 2008
The wireless headphones were a good idea, but are to cumbersome, heavy and very uncomfotable! 1 gig is way to small.
