mobiBLU DAH-1500

It's not the size that matters, it's what you do with it.

This month's alleged "world's smallest" looks more like a lump of snooker chalk than an MP3 player. The mobiBLU DAH-1500 is absolutely tiny and yet it still somehow manages to cram in an impressive 17 hours of MP3 or WMA playback, a bright OLED screen and an FM tuner.

Songs stored in the 256MB flash memory not only sound clean and crisp, but they are also surprisingly loud. Unfortunately, where the mobiBLU wins plus points for being extremely small, it manages to lose most of them for the slow drag-and-drop transfers, the fiddly controls and the lousy FM reception.
