Product Description
Nestled on a rock, looking up at the limestone sheets and towering trees, the gentle creek waters whooshed behind my head, over and through my partially immersed body. In my ears the sound of Enya singing Orinoco Flow. It's no enchanted creek. I'm listening to my Oregon Scientific MP120 MP3 player. I can do so because it's waterproof. It also resists shocks as it slides among the rocks of this shallow creek. In the cusp of Spring and Summer, shouldn't you be considering the MP120 for your water adventures? It's even great while dashing through the snow. May also be used as a USB data driveÂ?store or transfer any file type 5 preset equalizer modes USB 2.0 support for fast file transfers Built-in rechargeable battery (charges through USB connectivity) Includes - Waterproof stereo earphones, USB cable, carrying pouch and software It's Windows PC and Apple Macintosh friendly

Oregon Scientific MP120/BL256C 256 MB Waterproof MP3 Player with FM Tuner Black.......2007-05-03
The earbuds do not work very well...that is if they work at all.
It will last you 3 months tops.......2007-03-28
I swim almost every day for about 30-45 minutes. I thought it would be really neat to try to add music to my workout so I got MP120 as it was the only player under 100 at that time. First thing I noticed about MP120 was that the headphone wires were too much in the way and needed to be tucked under the swimming cap or wound around the goggle strap. Second and far more annoying problem was that the ear buds would fall out whenever I immersed in the water or tried to do a flip. So if you are only planning to use a kick board, this player may be great for you, for free style, [...] stroke, butter fly, or flips, I wouldn't recommend it.
After about 3 months, the water started getting into the ear buds and I noticed corrosion in and around the headphone speakers. It wasn't long before the left speaker started buzzing and the sound was seriously degraded.
The customer support for Oregon Scientific is absolutely of the worst kind. Long wait times, false promises and no records of previous calls are all too common. I called three times just to get a request in for a replacement ear buds. The person took the request, and said they would ship a new replacement free of charge since the product was still under the warranty. After three weeks I still haven't received anything. I tried calling the support again and after about 40 minutes of waiting I got to the same person I talked to the last time, however he had no recollection of me and was not able to pull anything on his computer, so he took the order again. I called again 6 months later and asked if they could try shipping the replacement since I haven't received it, but this time I was told my product is no longer under warranty and that I would have to buy a new MP3 player. Nice.
My next set will be Finis SwimMp3 Player which I have heard is superior in many ways.
My thought on This Product.......2007-03-27
As you might notice there are many mixed reviews on this product. I however am overall satisified. Positive it does work under water to a depth of 1 meter which for laps I can't see why you would be diving deeper than that... Plus it looks far better than any of the alternatives ie, bags for the I pod ect.... I would not use it as a main MP3 player. And as a down side it does sometimes shut off automatically ( the buttons seem sensitive) and the sound is not the greatest... You have to fiddle with the ear buds and a swim cap, and goggles really help.... Overall I am very satisfied I have owned this product for approx 6 months, and I really enjoy listening to tunes while doing my laps...
A so so product.......2007-01-23
I too have had the blue 512mb one for about a year. I use it for both running and swimming. It does work great in and out of the water, however most of the bad reviews listed here are justified. The unit does work but from time to time it freezes up or resets in the middle of use. Sometimes after a half hour or an hour or so it may just stop and you have to reset it. Hence the reason why they probably included a reset switch. Sometimes after a song it just resets itself and just sits at the opening screen. Other times hitting the volume or next song button it resets or freezes too.
I can live with that while running but I cannot stand it when it freezes while I swim or bike. Since you have to screw on the swim headphones over the reset button you cannot reset the unit when it freezes while you swim. So, if you are doing long swims, which I do and I am in the "swim of things" with the music and it freezes you are out of luck unless you stop and use the clamp to unscrew the unit and restart it. I swear they must have used Windows ME as their little OS in this thing. As for their tech support. I too agree that they are non-existent. I sent several emails and never received a response. I am considering getting a different player from some other vendor for it seems to keep freezing or resetting itself more often. This unit had the potential to be a great player but it is still buggy. I would purchase at your own risk.
Avoid.......2006-11-22
I was so disappointed. I hoped this would be the product I needed for lap swimming, but it fell very short in two important areas: earphones and software. The software was not very user friendly and was a pain compared to other MP3 devices. But the worst was the headphones. They are horribly quiet in the water. I worked and worked with them for weeks. I read the instructions. I tried cutting the rubber to fit my ear better. Nothing was going to keep them in my ear either. Swim cap didn't help. I don't think the ear buds are waterproof anyway because they would always leak rust water.

Not Recommended.......2007-09-05
Yes, it was under $15. But, it is overpriced at that amount. The mirror fogs. The radio won't stay on station. Buy something else.

Nice Remote - Inexpensive and Flexible.......2007-12-26
I like this remote b/c it does exactly what it should....consolidate most of my remotes and functions into a useable single remote. I love it.
Downside - memory is limited. As you program the remote and specific functions/buttons, the memory can run out (mine has!). It's disappointing, but still recommend for the money and for those users with less then 4 or 5 remotes.
Cool device!.......2007-11-28
It's great to control all our units with one remote! Initially it didn't accept settings for one of the units but tech support was great and now it controls everything. Thanks!
Works Great.......2007-11-13
This remote was easy to set up, and it is easy to use. The buttons are a little small.
Works everything.......2007-11-04
Customer service is great.

Works grrreat.
Great Remote Control, Excellent Value.......2007-10-26
This remote control is an excellent value and controls all of the devices in my home theater system. Their customer service is outstanding with quick responses to a phone call and an email. It is not difficult to program with a little practice and they emailed sound files to upgrade the remote with codes for an Oppo DVD player and a Vizio LCD TV. Even controls my DISH satellite box. Used an expensive universal Logitech 880 remote previously and it was a total waste of money. I just ordered another 8910 for a second home theater set up. I highly recommend this One For All Universal Remote.

A universal remote that (almost) handles everything.......2007-06-09
This remote contains codes for most audio, VCD, DVD and TV devices and can learn the codes from remotes not listed. I used it to operate two VCRs, one DVD, a TV antenna rotor, a HD TV tuner and an old video projector. It did not have the code for the HD tuner and a call to the company produced two possible candidates, programmed through the telephone line, but neither worked. No code was available for the projector at all, but using the learning function all of the operations needed were transferred to the remote. Limited memory is available for programming keys or adding a function not provided in the existing codes using the learning mode. Not all of the operations of the HD tuner could be stored and only one or two additional functions could be added to devices for which the preprogrammed codes worked but did not replicate all of the functions provided by the original remote. Nevertheless, this remote, with its lighted keypad, greatly simplified operation and I recommend it.
