It really makes me wonder if this so called one of the best budget portable player could really defeat the iPod. I've been testing both the iPod classic 80GB and hippo Gumstick for quite a while now and I still can’t find out whether if this mp3 player is really that good. To be fair, I’m running both ampless to test the performance and I think my iPod is not even running on the wolfson chips on older generation’s iPod. The results to be honest, I still do not find it better than an iPod. It is however you can say that they are more or less on the same level.
