Yes, my lil' bro has one (bar steward!) and it is a funky little unit -
though, it has to be said, the controls on the main unit itself are pants
in the extreme - too darn fiddly (bit like your Zen you mention Alan,
though the UI is better).  Why doesn't someone just blatantly rip off the
iPod control system?????

Might have to get one of the new colour iRivers - not that I have any real
need for a colour screen, or indeed a 40gb mp3 player since a journey's
worth of music fits on my phone and my old creative DAP would do for hols
if I could find it - but I simply cannot have my lil bro having a gadget I
do not have & must match or exceed that at the earliest possible
opportunity ;-))
