The A-200 casing is made entirely from plastic, which makes for a finish that's less than impressive. In fact, the device looks like some kind of novelty gadget and certainly has a cheap look and feel to it. An internal fan runs quite quickly within the enclosure and makes a noise that can definitely be heard when browsing through photos, for example.

Navigation is nice and fast, and there are plenty of customisable settings and configuration options. Album covers are displayed for MP3 and M4A files, whether or not they're included in the music file. However, to display photos as thumbnails you'll have to use an additional plugin module, either developed by the community or available via the network (myiHome).
