![]() Wrapped around them all is a neat rotating Hold switch, perfect for use when you're reaching in to an inside pocket to flip before you, say, adjust the volume. Next to it, on the player's front, is a round five-way control that melds track skip and volume buttons with a central 'select' key that doubles up as the menu button. The big strap connector matches the player's chunky theme, and for once is easy to connect and disconnect. IRiver spoils it, a little, by introducing a bend in the T10's body, presumably so it hangs properly when suspended from a neck lanyard. Unlike iRiver's T20, it's not so small that it's just too darn fiddly to use. ![]() The T10's weight gives it a solidity that's reassuring, and its size, while nowhere near close to challenging a hard drive-based player's girth, makes it easier to hold and use. It's clearly pitched at a more sporty audience - it's got yellow trim, always visual shorthand for a 'sport' model - and both its size and heft are intended to appeal to folk who maintain an 'active' lifestyle, whatever that is.Īctually, I quite like it, even though I'm not the target audience. Review iRiver's Flash-based T10 is one of the chunkier digital music players I've seen.
