I was lucky enough to get a 40% sale on it in an online store so that I got an awesome player for a really low price, great deal indeed. Nevertheless, even if you have to buy it for the usual price at about 100-130$ (1GB version), it's still worth the money I would say. Now to the main features.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;d like to share my view of a very fine low-end (maybe mid) personal audio/video player I&#8217;ve bought recently, the Teac MP-450. I was lucky enough to get a 40% sale on it in an online store so that I got an awesome player for a really low price, great deal indeed. Nevertheless, even if you have to buy it for the usual price at about 100-130$ (1GB version), it&#8217;s still worth the money I would say. Now to the main features.</p>
<p>Although some reviewers expressed their doubts about its design, especially the placement of the buttons when compared to the high-end devices, I must say that I actually do like it and don&#8217;t have the least problem with the easy navigation at all. There are 3 color versions of this smallish block that you can choose from &#8211; black-silver, graphite and pink. </p>
<p>Since the size is really tiny (70 x 43 x 11.5 mm), you&#8217;d have no trouble carrying it anywhere.</p>
<p><span id="more-2890"></span><img src="http://images.mironet.cz/foto/3/90501649/90501649.jpg" /></p>
<p>The supported formats are MP3, WMA (DRM 9&#038;10), AVI, JPG, TXT, VRA which is enough to have fun with it. Videos need to be converted to a particular AVI format/size to be played on a 2-inch display with 262 000 colors. Details in the videos played on this device are fairly sufficient to watch just about anything on the go in a very good picture quality. Images can be of any size. Listen to the radio using built-in FM tuner, read lyrics or any other text file in a text viewer or record the surroundings using a miniature mike inside the device. </p>
<p>Just note that the quality of recording isn&#8217;t too high if you don&#8217;t put it near the source so that you shouldn&#8217;t be disappointed later on. Built-in Li-Pol accumulator can support this device for up to 15 hours and can be recharged very quickly via USB link (standalone recharger is not included in the package). I&#8217;d also recommend buying other earphones than the default ones because they lower the playback quality a little bit.</p>
<p>Other functions of this player would be support for ID3 tags, 8-mode equalizer including one dedicated to your custom settings, 3 bookmarks in text files, support for language study (meaning several ways of repeating) and a single preinstalled game &#8211; Tetris. For its price/function rate this little entertainer is a very good choice and has been serving me very well for several weeks. I don&#8217;t have a single complaint myself.</p>
