![]() The player's smooth black face doesn't show any controls or buttons at first. But its elegant design does have a similar sleekness and gee-whiz factor, something we can't say about most WMA-compatible players. The Philips GoGear HDD6330 Jukebox resembles the new black iPod, although at 2.5 by 4.1 by 0.7 inches, it's noticeably thicker (the 30GB iPod is 0.4 inch thick and 4.8 ounces), and it weighs more at 5.3 ounces. ![]() ![]() Although we have heard some reports of the HDD6330 suffering from processor slowness-including one from a CNET employee who has used the device-our tester didn't experience any major problems. While the snazzy touch-sensitive interface isn't for everybody, this Windows Media DRM 10-compatible player is a nice step forward for Philips MP3 players, which have suffered from performance issues in the past. Music lovers who want the iPod's style but would rather stick to something compatible with Windows Media Player and Windows Media DRM 10 should give some consideration to Philips's $300 ($280 on the street) GoGear HDD6330 Jukebox, a sexy black portable that offers 30GB of storage, photo viewing on a bright, clear screen, and even a few tricks that the iPod hasn't learned.
