iMusic 2.xx is a good application, but it has some cons.

- It Shuffles but not when pressing next/previous track, it will just scroll to the next song.
- It associates itself with MP3, which you cannot revert without a Registry Tweak (or uninstallation...)
- When removing iMusic, you get an ignorant missing file error each time you press your power button to activate your device...

Besides these cons iMusic is equiped with the best Equalizer i've seen(or should i say heard?) in any music player for PocketPC.

Although i switched back to Mediaplayer for its Album Art feature and because i have a Sound Output manipulator (Bass & Treble regulator) i think iMusic is the best alternative.

What i find dissapointing in Pocketmusic and other music players is that their 'Bass Boost' doesn't increase the Bass but just reduces the higher frequencies so you hear the bass better.

The manipulator i told about really boosts bass, so that's why i choose Media Player :).

Is that "manipulator" anything like x50mix? Thats what im using with wmp.

Its a really good program, but im thinking a 10 band eq in combination with x50mix would be awesome.

it isn't an Equalizer, its just a Bass/Treble Booster (which works very good on my Imate Jam)

Xda-Developers is offline so i cannot give you an info link.
Not sure if it will work on an Axim, because its made for QVGA.

I have Mortplayer and GSPlayer installed, and find myself using GSPlayer the most, as it shows the playlist better. Both are skinnable (Mortplayers skins are MUCH better), have equaliser support and other features. They are also free, so it can't hurt to check them out :)

Yep, I have my buttons all mapped to do nice stuff like turn the screen off, move forward and backwards through the playlist, etc. I sit my X50v in my shirt pocket (face out) and can listen to stuff with complete control without taking it out or turning the screen on
