haha, i was thinkin the same too .. i think the iMP-350 could still demand atleast $175-200 CDN used. so the price differential between that and the iMP-550 should be under $100 hopefully.

so what'll it be guys .. ? black or silver .. ?

Posted by Crazy Serb on Apr-24-2003 00:32:

Silver of course...

Posted by NightCreature on Apr-24-2003 05:38:

the silver one is awesome!

i'm perfectly happy with my 400, I actually like the design of it a tiny bit better i think.

And 44 hours of playback? Bullshit... still, nice player and definately worth the money for those that are looking for a new portable cd player.

edit I just looked at the black one...It looks really nice..............but my 400 still looks nicer
