Back To School with Coby MP3 Player + Giveaway

Beth August 9, 2010 551

I don’t care if your going back to college after a 20 year leave, first time to college, or you have a child hitting high school this fall.  One thing is certain we need some tunes to keep us sane between classes, between homework, between midnight cramming.  Over 10 years ago when I went to Purdue I had my CD player + earphones always on me.  Actually I rocked out so hard I had a teacher say to me once “you know we can hear your music, right?”.  A little embarrassed but yes I was always blasting it out.  It would set the mood for me.  Now fast forward 10 years and imagine seeing some one with a portable CD player.  Not so much!  And we thought CD’s were the best thing since..well the cassette.  Now iTunes and down-loadable music is the thing of the present and who knows what the future holds.

Let me introduce you to the Coby MP707 Video & MP3 Player. This player combines the features you expect with easy-to-use controls refined by years of experience. Enjoy digital video and audio everywhere you go with its generous 2.0″ TFT LCD full-color screen. Up to 8 GB of memory gives you plenty of storage for music, videos, photos, and text. Coby Media Manager software included for easy and hassle-free media syncing.

I must admit I’m not too good with new technology devices.  I was a little intimidated when I received it & how to work it.  I don’t even have a cell phone, ppl.  Very painless I must say and I may just suggest my grandpa getting one.  Very easy to navigate and just scroll up and down to find music and center button enter to play.  So yes, I’m excited to have a way to clean the house, go for walks, and even driving in the car with some of my favorite music.  The Coby MP3 player is great because it is small and compact.  I can slide it in my pocket, jacket, or purse and never feel like I’m hauling around an eye sore (like with the old CD players from the 90′s).

How Fab Is Coby’s MP3 707 player?

With the new technology today MP3 players have advanced even in the short period of time they have been on the market.  Now MP3 players are not only something to hold tunes but you can view videos, photo’s as well.  You are able to build a Quick Play List with all of your favorites in one easy to manage spot.  There is even a Now Playing screen that shows when a song is rolling.  You will need to install the Coby Media Manager software that is included with your MP3 player to be able to add personal photo’s and video’s.  The instruction manual for CMM can be found on
your player. You may need to download and install the free Acrobat PDF reader from Adobe at www.adobe.com/go/getreader/ in order to view the instruction manual. Then just plug your USB (that was included) into your computer.  Your computer will pop up a screen and just click on “Coby Media Manager” and hit OK.  Then follow the instructions to complete instillation, like with any other device.
My husband has taken it over though and I need to buy one now for me.  He works in a factory and I think he deserves a little get-a-way with tunes, if you will.  The Coby MP3 is definitely something we would suggest buying.
