I gotta have stuff.

Guys like me don't outgrow playing with toys. They just get bigger and more expensive.

I WANT ONE!

Amy, you're a frigging genius!!!

Your mention of the new media player led me to an upgrade to the OS. That fixed the popping sound.

The jury is still out on whether it fixes the other problems. However, I now have two other problems.

1. Some of my MP3s that played under the old player won't play under the new one.

2. I can't figure out how to uninstall the old media player.

I had to... (Reply to this comment)

...skim through this review. Not because I did not WANT to read it, but because it was DANGEROUS for me to do so.

Then I would WANT one and that would not be good right now!

HAHAHAHAHA

Great job, and very thorough.

Your review came along at the right time. A friend of mine is trying to decide between this model and one of the Palm units. This will help.

Very thorough, Grace.

Thanks.

Have you downloaded the new Windows Media Player yet? I don't have the problems that you are describing with the volume or the playlist.

Superb review Grace! Don't you despise those boxes that are too big to *sneak* in! =)

I am glad you like your new toy! Thank you for the in depth information with regard to the volume control, having a hearing loss - that is important to know!!!!

We want to purchase a palm but are hesistant. Actually the we is more ME. =)

I would imagine that it was hard to stay focused that afternoon! Have fun!
