Title: Olympus M:robe 500i (20GB)
Pros: Minimal touch-screen design; beautiful interface graphics; built-in 1.2-megapixel camera; neat Remix slide-show mode.
Cons: Touch screen isn't always responsive; mediocre battery life; bulky; slow processing; must use Olympus M:trip software; cradle is required to recharge device; subpar photo quality.
Verdict: The 500i certainly makes a good first impression, thanks to its multifunctionality, its touch-screen display, and its beautiful graphics, but it needs to back them up with better performance.

Title: Olympus m:robe 500i
Pros: Huge 3.7 inch screen is VGA resolution and text is very readable. Camera adjusts well to widely varying light conditions. Audio is exceptionally clean. Stable, good-looking TV output.
