While I have no intention of using the gadget as an mp3 player - my Sundisk Sansa plays both mp3 and ogg - what the designers have crammed into this little package is truly impressive. Wi-Fi, send and receive email, camera with zoom and the pictures can be emailed to my computer (my cell phone charges for that), motion and position sensors (the Star Walk app shifts the view of the night sky as you point the device at different stars), etc.
If it had been my money I would have bought an Android device but I can't look this gift horse in the mouth.
