Good product.......2003-03-18

This is a great cd player for the price. Good sound, and good quality. To the people that complain about this and other cd players skipping, read the packaging better. Some cd players sold still have little or no non-skip ability. If it doesn't say it on the package it doesn't have it. In addition regular, heavy duty, and some of the cheaper akaline batteries won't last long. You have to get a good name brand battery or rechargeable batteries with a high mah(1300 or better). You can get 2 rechargeable batteries and the charger for under 20 dollars most places, including Target.

Doesn't work.......2003-03-17

Received the player, and can't get it to work. Shows picture in the screen that is not shown in the instruction book. Contacted RCA customer support - takes up to 3 days for a response!

RCA Personal CD/MP3 Player RP2410.......2003-02-26

I bought that about a year ago and it seemes like its pretty good. The only bad thing about it that i think it has short battery life.

Not a good buy!.......2003-01-25

This player works extremely well when plugged in and sitting on a stable surface. When you attempt to use it as an actual "walk"man it completely malfunctions. It skips continuously, freezes, won't turn off, and [drains] batteries dry in a matter of hours.

Quite pathetic, really..........2003-01-10

I bought this in a shop, not on Amazon. I tried it in the shop, and was fooled. It seemed to work fine with the mp3 CD I tried it with, didn't skip even though I shook it. What a fool I was.

Two things are awful with this player: the skipping and the battery life. This thing takes FOUR AA BATTERIES!!! Does it last long for that price? NO! It sucks the life out of rechargeable AA batteries like nothing, with about 8 hours of playback max (that's on FOUR batteries, where most other players offer 12+ on 2!!!). Because of the four batteries it is pretty big: most of the player is of reasonable thickness but there's a big bulge at the back where you put the batteries.

The other deadly flaw is the skipping. Yeah, I tried it in the shop, but the 100 seconds anti-skip is really literal. Start walking with this thing, and (if your CD is clean and well burnt) you'll have 100 seconds of good playback. Then it will start skipping unless you stop walking. Holding it in your hands and trying to compensate the shocks/oscillations of walking is not enough, you actually have to STOP and let it fill its buffer again. And once you've done that, you've got another 100 seconds, then rinse and repeat. Not just that, but (generally especially on the songs where you just really pray for it not to skip cause you like them), it skips back and forth, sometimes giving up and going to the next song.

The only good sides of this player are that the display/seeking (once you've gotten use to the unintuitive interface, eg using the volume buttons, hidden on the side, to go up and down a listing...) actually works. This is better than the NAPA DAV310 I had before (which was by far even worse). And it doesn't skip much in the car, either, so long as your CDs are clean.

I would not recommend buying this to anyone.
