Re: the tiny tunes player
Oh what a con this sounds like! I really hate it when companies do this, market a product that's claimed to be the first of its kind, only to be let down by stupid gimmiks and worst of all no way to get a refund. How disgusting! Think I will stick with my iPhone and Pc/Mac for playing music. Christopher Hallsworth On 18/12/2012 01:18, Joe Giovanelli wrote: Hello, You may have heard about an MP 3 player called Tiny Tunes.

Re: the tiny tunes player
I tried to warn folks about this player months ago by responding to any emails that I saw regarding this con. There were many exaggerations and misrepresentations in these emails and even on their site itself. IN fact, if you go to their site today, you'll see that they claim 70 hours of battery life! i think most of us know that this is a wild exaggeration to say the least. they also still claim that it's the only MP3 player which you don't have to look at the screen to use, it's the first MP3 player that talks, etc. I feel sorry for all of those who fell for this con job. All I can say is that I tried to shed some light on it months ago. I'm not even going to try to promote my own Talking MP3 Players in this message, just that i feel very sorry for those who got ripped off. Happy holidays everyone!
