Insignia® Pilot 4GB Video MP3 Player Giveaway

by char on January 29th, 2008

UPDATED WITH WINNER!! Congrats to SJ at comment #461 - you are the lucky winner!

Portable music and video players keep getting smaller and cooler! Best Buy is now carrying a new brand called Insignia which is all about affordable and well designed technology. We were given the opportunity to review the Insignia Kix 1GB MP3 Player and my 11 year old son loves it. Keep reading because I am giving away an even cooler toy to one of our readers!

insignia kix mp3At less than $50, the Kix is a great entry level MP3 player - perfect for getting kids used to loading their own songs, being responsible for a little gadget and its easy to use. I wanted to really give the Kix a test so I handed the box to my son and said “go for it!” Within just a few minutes he had the box open, had gone over the instructions and was loading music on to the player. The player holds 1GB of music which is plenty for most kids. The online, drag and drop interface made it incredibly easy for him to add songs that were already on his computer and to add more from the Best Buy Music Store. It also has an FM tuner so you can listen to the radio on the go.

Insignia Pilot Video MP3In conjunction with this review, Best Buy is sponsoring our giveaway for an Insignia Pilot 4GB Video MP3 Player!

The Pilot holds 4GB of music or video and is Bluetooth enabled allowing you to enjoy your music and videos without wires. Other features include:

  • Supports MP3, WMA, WMA Lossless, WMA DRM, WMA Pro, OGG, WAV, Audible, MPEG4 (30 fps), WMV (30 fps) and JPEG formats
  • 2.4″ high-resolution LCD color display with wide viewing angles
  • Built-in digital FM tuner with 20 presets; remember songs you hear by saving track and artist data from FM stations broadcasting RDS data
  • Features a Secure Digital card expansion slot for additional memory capacity (media not included)
  • Custom EQ with 4 presets
  • High-speed USB 2.0 interface for blazing transfer speeds
  • Rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to 25 hours of playback time
  • Perfect Sync with Best Buy Digital Music Store and rate songs you love or hate with the included music management software

So, how do you enter? It’s easy!! Leave me a comment on this post letting me know that you would like to be entered to win. I’d also love to know if you (or your kids) already have an MP3 player - what you like or don’t like about them, your favorite place to get music, or anything else along those lines. You have to use a valid email address (that you check) as I will be notifying the winner via email. Your email address is not published or shared with anyone! If you have a blog, you can get a second entry by mentioning this giveaway to your readers.

Deadline for entries is midnight Wednesday, February 13, 2008.

    Ohhhh - pick me, pick me! My son has a new cheap MP3 player and my daughter used to have one. The problem with them being so small is that kids really easily to lose or break them.

    They need bomb-proof ones with a remote-control beeping finder on them! ;)

    Jan 29, 2008 at 7:05 am

    No, pick me instead, I need it more! (kidding, Wendy)

    I would love one of these for when I am cleaning the house…and AJ could really use one for crowded places.

  • WAH(web)Mommy
    Jan 29, 2008 at 7:10 am

    No, no, no… pick ME! :) LOL

    I’m really looking for a new one for DD. I have an ipod, and DD had another brand (cheaper) mp3 player dedicated to her music. Hers broke though (it won’t charge therefore it’s dead now).

    So we’re sharing the ipod again, but it makes it difficult to do random “shuffle” of music…. because either she ends up listening to inappropriate rock music, or I end up lisening to Ralph’s World or the Backyardigans or something, lol.

    I’ll throw my hat in the ring just because I could use this as a bribing tool between three boys :D Currently we have three iPods and their favorite place to get music is iTunes.

    I love these gadgets because I’m not having to constantly yell through the house to turn down the stereo :)

    I need this so badly so that I can download episodes of LOST and watch them over and over and over again.

    I get most of my music from ITunes (someone bought me a CD for Christmas and I think it was the first one I have gotten in about 6 years).

    I have an Ipod Shuffle and hubby has my old Ipod Mini.

    We are in desperate need of an upgrade!

    I feel like I’m the only one left who DOESN’T have an mp3 or other music device! I find I can ‘afford’ the things my kids and family want, but never seem to be able to justify purchases for me! I would love it for exercise, walking and using the treadmill (yawn) would go so much faster with music!

    My son had an MP3 player that he used constantly. It was one of the few things that helped him go to sleep. (He is 12 and those preteen years are the pits!)

    Unfortunately, his dumb mom didn’t check his jeans and it went through the washer and dryer. MP3 players don’t like that! At all. I am definitely looking to replace it!

    I’d love to try it. My 11 yo daughter and I don’t have MP3 players or ipods or any of that. Actually, I did get a digital camera for Christmas that is also an MP3 player, but I haven’t tried it in that capacity yet. This would be a nice way for both of us to learn how to use the technology.

    Our kids (9 and 7) have the Disney mix stick (or whatever it’s called) the pros are the size and shape the cons are the battery dies quickly and has to be recharged often, second thing is they can’t easily add music on their own. We have to load music for them. Having something they could easily figure out how to load MP3’s onto would be awesome! Count me in! Thanks for a great giveaway!

    I have an old IPOD shuffle (no display). DH has an IPOD (forget which model, but it’s got a 3 inch color screen.) My son (10) would love his own MP3 player!

    Hi there. I’d love to be entered, my old iPod kicked the bucket. My wife and I are trying to get back into exercising after a long time off during my wife’s pregnancy and first couple of months with the little one…. and it’s so hard to exercise without good tunes!

  • Jenna

    I’m probably one of the only late twenty-something that still doesn’t have an MP3 player and I would love one… honestly I would take either of them… because even a small “child friendly” one is better than nothing :)

    I have a toddler, so she doesn’t have a player yet. But I have to say, she LOVES High School Musical. Not really sure how that happened. I get my music from various sites. It will be interesting to see what happens with the music industry now that digital downloading has become so popular.

    Great giveaway! Count me in! Thanks!

  • Piseco

    We’d love this at our house! My son has a Sansa Shaker which we like because of the tiny built in speaker (he doesn’t like headphones) but there is no display so it’s very hard to control & best only for random music! Thanks for the contest.

  • Mandy
    Jan 30, 2008 at 10:55 am

    This is so nice! The rechargable battery is a huge plus. I have a little player that I bought for $10 on sale and I take it to the gym. It goes through batteries like crazy and doesn’t work very well. I need a new one to get me motivated! I’ve lost 20 lbs since the last baby but have 30 more to go!:)
    I like to get music from iTunes or from my current CD collection. Thank you for such a nice giveaway!

    Okay, now, this sounds really user-friendly. Since I am one of those rare electronically-challenged people, I have to have something designed for a toddler in order to figure out what to do. So please enter me in this contest and let your random picker pick my number. I need to get out of this rut I’m in - am I the only one that is electronically-challenged left in the world????

    We have a couple of mp3 players, but the best is the iPod classic, simply because it plays video - which makes it a portable DVD player without the bulk. I would love to win this for the same feature since we have two kids now!

    We’d love to win this, since that son has lost his player, and I would give him mine if I were to win a new one.

I didn’t have any gifts ready for him so I wrapped up my new MP3 player and gave it to him. For some reason, I never replaced it although I’ve meant to. Winning this one would be wonderful!

    Nobody in my house owns an MP3 of any type, so it would be really fun to have one. My 12 year old would love it for the long road trips that we take throughout the USA, and I would love it for the gym.

    :) Thanks for entering me!
