How did they find that out? Did someone buy one and get it already? Or did someone call iriver? This bums me out because I was thinking of buying one.
I bought one and ran a disk scan on it. I found a whole collection of deleted mp3's. I argued over missing accessories (no charger), and they wound up sending me another iriver (with charger this time). That one too had deleted mp3's on it.
Looks like you are right. I just ran Restoration mine and found a boatload (or is it BUTTload?) of lame ass hip hop and psuedo rap
sh!t. I don't mind if it is a refurb unit. That just means that it has been "tested" before it went back out. it does make one wonder which part failed.
Installed RockBox last night and everything is working great. This seems to be a really nice little rig. I can't wait until 32 gig cf cards come down in price. That will make a really nice upgrade!

LIVE MP3s?!? Disclaimer: If you're anything like me, you'll utterly hate how this shit sounds, which is no offense to (names removed), who have been to too many shows with their digital toys to NOT make me feel guilty about not playing better. But like I keep telling them, live music is for listening to live where bodies, surfaces and beer absorb the blemishes, and recorded music, well, that's why you fucking go to a studio to make your records, right? Nevertheless, in the interest of full disclosure, and because some people dig this shit, here's a few nuggets of live joy, some old shit, some new, some borrowed and no goddamn blues, because I'm white and have more respect for BLAH BLah blah
