The connections are discreetly mounted inconspicuously on the back. It also has the ability to accept phone calls with it and to connect an external device (ex. CD player or PC). The battery life is in my opinion an above-average long and hard to beat.
The only complaint is that the loading facility only works via USB. However, this is not an issue if you have an adapter is concerned, probably already is "common household".
I therefore speak from a strong buy recommendation for the device.
