Introduction
Tonite we are having a look at a new product from Jensofsweden. It’s their new Mp300 series mp3 player which comes in either 256mb or a 512 mb version. We have a copy of the 256 mb version that comes with a FM transmitter etc. This will be very interesting to see since the last player we reviewed from them got a very good score. Can they follow the good trend? Let’s see what this player can do.

Instead of a square box they have decided to go for a round black one. There is just the Jensofsweden logo with silver paint on it. Included is a manual, line-in cable and a USB cable ofcourse. There is more so stay tuned and continue reading.

A pair of headphones are of course also included. This design has been very popular among JOS users. I would call them neckstrap headphones because it’s basically both. You will see how they work later on in this review. These are very nice since the locking mechanism on the right picture gives you the ability to lock the player with a little string instead of having it hanging on the earphone cord.

There is also a normal neckstrap included so you can use normal headphones and still have it hanging around your neck. On the right picture we have the player itself. You can see that I still have the protective plastic cover on the player itself. The yellow logo disapears as soon as you rip it off 
I left it on because I have to test it in various places and don’t want it scratched the first thing I do.
