Conduits Pocket Player - Make your Motorola Q into a Full Featured MP3 Player













Conduits offers full function media player called Pocket Player. It handles playing audio files including MP3, videos, podcasts and offers an onboard search and webguide.

For the purposes of this test and review, I am going to emphasize the MP3 player aspect of the application.

The browser screen (shown left) gives you a good idea of how this application is used and has a similar user interface to most MP3 players we know.

Browsing is fast and organized as you would hope.



Once the player screen comes up based upon your selection, all is familiar and pretty obvious with the direction buttons handling most of the work. Up/Down handles volume and Left/Right handles moving through the songs. All these buttons can be remapped to customize the player fully to your needs.

Functionally, this application offers spectacularly more functionality with abilities to add plug-ins, alter appearance via skinning, full graphic equalizer and built in browser to search all manner of media including podcasts. The screenshot page will give you an excellent summary of the scope of this application.

Overall this is a stellar, professional application and fully deserving of the $19.95 price tag (at the time of writing this). There is a 30 Day demo so you can check it out for yourself.
