Insignia® Pilot 4GB Video MP3 Player Giveaway
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!
At 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.
In 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.
I haven’t bought one yet. I guess I’ve been to busy with everything to really bother to go shop for something like this for myself.
What a generous and fun giveaway! I don’t own an MP3 player and I would love to be entered please. Thank you!
Count me among the ones who want to win. Thanks for the great giveaway. No mp3 players here at my house.
My daughter bought herself an ipod, and one of my boys has an mp3 player on his phone, but we can’t seem to work it.
I would love to win one for one of my kids.
My girls have cheap MP3 players and never can get them to work right.
Please enter me! I don’t have one. My husband has a very cheap one. I don’t often buy my own music. Every Christmas, I usually get a new cd from my parents (it seems like that is the time of the year that I have one I would like to get!)
Great! It would be nice to win since I’ve never had one. My sisters really like theirs.
It would be great to win one of these! I have an mp3 player, but it’s taken a bit of abuse (I’m clumsy, or I bump into things with it when it’s strapped to my arm) and I don’t know how much life it has left. Poor little guy.
I would so love this prize! My 4 younger kids all have MP3 players. I almost had one also. Christmas 2006, my 2nd son surprised me when he came home unexpectedly from Hawaii on Christmas eve. 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!
I would love to get an MP3 player, I do not have one!
I’d love to own this, please enter me into this contest.
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.
What a great prize!
I have a mp3 player and it really doesn’t like to work!! Its a 4gb Creative Zen…now not sold and on the fritz…I can’t have any less than 4 cuz I listen to so many podcasts!!! This would be so cool!!!
I dont have one but I would like to. Thanks!
Please enter me. I don’t yet have any ipod. I blogged about this giveaway here:

My son has one and it’s nice for when we are in the car so no more fighting over the radio. He has mostly put his cds on it. I would love to win this for myself.
please add me. thank you
Oh, a giveaway that both my daughter and husband would be all over – I currently have an Ipod but they do not. My daughter LOVES music and we’d love to be able to load up her very own MP3 for car trips, etc. And I’m sure my husband would love to have one of his very own too!
Thanks, for a great, generous giveaway!

I don’t have an MP3 player – hubby had one stolen by his fabulous high school students. I would love on of my own for listening to music while I go to the gym and become a smaller version of me.
I would love to win this! We don’t have an MP3 player (honestly, I am not even sure how they work).
Thanks for a great giveaway! I hope to win!
Come check out the three contests I have going on right now!
My husband has an ipod and I would love to have one, but cannot bring myself to spend the hundreds of dollars to get one. I’d love to win this mp3 player – it would definitely get some good use!!!
Got my husband an MP3 player years ago and I love the versatility i.e. easy to play through FM. My girls want their own so bad and dad says too expensive! Well, what if I win it?!
I am sorry to say I am mp3 deprived. I know nothing – but am willing to learn!
I techincally already have an mp3 player because it is built into my iphone. I love the convenience, and I’d love to give this one as a gift to one of my parents. Thanks for doing this!
Would definitely love this! I have an ipod shuffle which my son would love to claim as his own if I were fortunate enough to win this!
My niece does not have a player but this sounds great.
Please enter me. Believe it or not, we don’t have an MP3 player or iPod in our house. lol
My husband has one and loves it, I would like to compete with him and have my ears on all the time so I can’t hear him either…
I’d love this. I don’t have have any of these new fangled music players.
I’d love to win. I have an iPod, but my sister doesn’t and this would be perfect for her!
I feel like the only person in the world who doesn’t have an mp3 player. I would love one!
Well sounds like you’re gonna have fun with this one..”choose wisely”
oh enter me please! thanks.
My son really wants one – for now he makes lots of playlists on mine! Isn’t it amazing how quickly they figure new stuff out? I love it when he shows me new features… I never would’ve found!
Thanks!
Please count me in! I don’t own an mp3 player.
I would love this! We have an ipod, but video on this would be great for the kids!
I have an 80gb iPod Video and my girfriend has a 4gb Zune. I love my iPod but my girlfriend’s zune is not so great. Design wise I like it, but it has a flaw in it that static electricity causes them to restart a lot and decrease battery life. So please enter me for the contest and I hope I can win her a replacement.
Thanks
My husband got an Ipod for Christmas and loves it. On rare occassions he lets me borrow it. I would love to have one of my own.
I have an iPhone that I use as my mp3 player, but my husband has been wanting one for some time now. I know he’d love this one. Please enter me!
No I don’t have one yet but would love to!! Please enter me in!
My kids don’t have one but they would love it! They are new to music and it would be fun to get one for each of them (twins!). Thank you for you having such a generous giveaway! I would LOVE to win one-they can share for now!
Thanks again!
Please enter me! My son does not have one, but we have an IPod…love that!
I have a $14.00 mp3 player. LOL, you can imagine, it is rather limited.
Great giveaway – thanks for the chance!! Please be sure to enter mine.
I would love to be entered for this wonderful giveaway! Thank you so much for having such a terrific prize. My son gave me his old iPod (shuffle) at Christmas when he got a new one, but a video mp3 player would be awesome! I’d be the envy of my kiddo’s friends! Thanks.
I would love to win this for my daughter. We take road trips on a semi regular basis and this would be perfect to help entertain her on our standard 6 hour drive to California. It would be great to give her this and then be able to listen to a music station of my choice in the car instead of Radio Disney all the time. My sanity might just have a shot at salvation! Seriously, she is cute and all but a grown woman can only take so much Hannah Montana!!! We (and by we I mean me) could really use one!
I’d love the video MP3 – DH has one (not video) but I never get to use it. This one looks easy enough for a luddite like me! Thanks for counting me in!
I don’t have an mp3 player nor does anyone in my family so it would be wonderful to be a winner!
Thanks!
I have an iPod. I bought my husband an mp3 player for Christmas so that I wouldn’t have to share so often. Now my son is asking to use mine every day. [he's not even close to being a teen - I'm in trouble!] Please enter me. Thanks.
I’d love to win the MP3 player but I’m happy to get a recommendation too. Both my kids are in severe “want” of players now.
This is a great giveaway! count me in!
