I have to chime in and agree with OP on this one, as I see the opposing arguments as rather silly.
Suppose you wanted a cheap mp3 player. You don't need to store photos, you don't need a display, you don't need a smooth-as-silk touch-click-magic controller. You find a $50 512MB mp3 player and the literature says it does what you need - plays mp3 and wav - no aiff, atrac, ogg etc - that's fine, all I want is an mp3 player
So it shows up and:
No screen - OK, I didn't expect one
30 day warranty - OK, it's a low end model, no surprise
kinda cheap looking - I get what I pay for
kinda clunky in operation - ditto
doesn't play mp3, only atrac - ????
