First, the seller was a different one (myoutlet21) when I bought it on Oct 22. And I noticed a price increase. However, the link is here so I put my review here.
my gadget has 16G, can play avi, but almost nothing else. the flv, wmv and mp4 are all recognized but "format error". another problem is the usb end is misaligned so I almost broke the usb wire to make the connection. also, the box and manual all said it is a mp4 instead of mp5. I am not sure what is the reason so emailed the seller. He was pretty sure about the item but had no idea why the non-recognize happened.
I was sad about this purchase almost right away. However, the customer service is fast and reasonable. They gave me partial refund so that i get a reasonable price for a 16G flash drive, maybe Mp4 player.
Whatever, I will say good luck.
---------------add more----------
I played more on this. add more:
1. You have to use touch screen for full function. but it is not convenient to use stylus all the time, especially on such a small screen when walking. if the button can do more, that will be better.
2. the txt reader program is not well designed. If I use the button, I can only turn one line. I have to use the stylus to turn one page.
3. if i hit "page down" wrong (trust me, this happened all the time, even with stylus), txt reader will close. And when I return back, the reader just shows the first page. No way I can remember which page I was and jump back to that page. Yes, you can set a page mark to remember the position, but this is about out of program by mistake. If it can remember the previous position, it will be better.
4. when using video player, you can fast forward. but the screen turns green after that. so, you will have to close and re-open it.

Dear customers:
We are truly impressed and inspired by robust discussions here. Your discussions not only helped and are helping numerous new buyers make wise decisions, but also help us keep improving our products and services. And Dokusentia, you are just amazing. You knows the product better than any one of us in the office here. And you have been kindly spreading the good words about our products. We want to thank you for that.
For all our existing or future customers, please remember that we stand behind our products. Electronics will have defects and that will for sure happen to some of you (very limited number of you :)). If it unfortunately happens to you, we are here for you. Get in contact with us and we will take care of you in the most reasonable scale. Thank you again for the comments. Good or bad, we take them all. Thank you
Just to add a little bit more comments. We are a little bit concerned recently because there have been many vendors selling the similar products here. Please note, our product has PE logo on it with registered brand name. We are not sure if our product is much better than everybody else but we are pretty confident that our Quality Control process and extra investment on better quality parts and materials reduce the defective rate dramatically.
Products might all look the same from different vendors. But, they are indeed different. The firmware is different, the parts and material used are different and the service and supports are different. We have never tried the products from other vendors and we believe their products are of equally good quality. We can only speak for ourselves and we stand behind our products.
Please choose wisely when it comes to picking vendors and products. Thank you

This seems like a solid unit, a little light, but that means when you drop it, it won't smack into the ground like a brick, too.
The sound is excellent and it is loud. I have a slight hearing problem, so my concern is audio volume - no problem here, I'm playing it at level 17 and it goes up to 32.
The video is very clear. I won't go into the whole conversion thing. I mastered conversion a long time ago - I had the RCA Lyra Video thing. THAT was a nightmare.
I could use a couple more games - there's only one and it's pretty lame. I could use a freecell game. Something that suits this better than "snake" or whatever it's called.
The FM radio is awesome. I live in Chicago, so FM is generally good, but the reception and sound is exceptional. Better than my old Marantz tuner.
The only problem I have had so far is with songs playing out of order. The order is ALMOST right, but there's one track on every album that's out of order. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to fix that?
Overall, how can you go wrong? I've owned just about every brand of MP3 player, from the original RIO, to the Intel MP3 player (remember that one?) to RCA, SanDisk, Dell, a few Chinese players, 2 iPods, and all kinds of Walkman products. I listen to these a lot. This player's sound is as good as any of them, and better than most.
They claim that this feels cheaper than the iPod, but the first time I dropped my iPod, it broke. And that wheel on the iPod never felt all that "solid" to me, either.
I'm waiting for the next generation. Bigger flash drive (128 GB would be GREAT!!) and a little better touchscreen (there's nothing wrong with this touchscreen, though you do have to touch several times occasionally) is all I ask for the next one.
This is very close to 5 stars. If the songs were in order (and I'm sure I'll be able to correct that soon) it would be 5 stars. Well designed, well put together, GREAT price.
