     Over the years, MP3 players have changed the way we listen to our music. No more clumsy walkman, no more CDs. Now days, MP3 players are so small you tend to loose them like a set of keys or a cigarette lighter. As MP3 players get smaller, we are seeing more and more features being incorporated into the device. Now days our cell phones, palm pilots, FM receivers, recorders, MP3 players, internet browsers, and cameras are being integrated into one handy device that we simply can't live without. The technology is extremely exciting and people like me go crazy trying to keep up with the new devices as they come out. Speaking of new and exciting devices, PC Partner has come out with an all new line of digital audio devices that are well worth looking at. Starting at the lower end of their line up is the Zotac Bomba 100. With 1gb of MP3 and/or WMA storage space, this baby promises hours of musical enjoyment...but it doesn't stop there! Let's take a closer look at the Bomba 100 and see what else is jammed into this Zippo sized media device!

     Coming is at only 80mm x 36mm x 21mm in size, you better keep the Bomba 100 strapped to your neck or you'll loose it between the couch cushions. Even though it is very small, the buttons are simple and easy to use. Even the menu is self explanatory and easy to brows.

     It's hard to believe that not only does the Bomba 100 play MP3s and WMA files, it also has an nice FM tuner, dual earphone jacks and recording microphone with line in recording. It also doubles as a USB storage device. And for such a small device, I was extremely surprised to find out it also has a 10 mode EQ so you can tune your music to your liking. This is one feature that is missing in many MP3 players. Without an EQ, you just can't get that ultra deep base that music junkies like myself live for! Did I mention 8 hours of play time on one AAA battery!
