It feels great in your hand and it's small. It feels smooth without any protection, but after applying the silicone case, it still feels good since it's so cute ^^ and small of course.Wish I had waited for the PLUS one to come out, but I'm fine with the 1GB. I'll just be changing the songs a lot whenever my taste changes. The screen that comes with PLUS is useful, but I'm still glad I have the 1 GB one. It's better than not having one.Great small player, but lacking assess. So far only some sport band, clip, and silicone skin.
