MP3 player andsoftware

[Rick]

Well after 2 weeks of dealing with that POS MS media play to load an MP3 player
I have had it..

I need one with at least512meg storage and it's own interface program.

This Iriver T30 and the media player are history

I know about the Ipod and Itunes.
But I don't like apple anything..

And one have any ideas ?

BTW.
It should be able to book mark the place in ebooks and or MP3 files.
too manyof my filesarelong and starting over each time isn't going to get..

I have a few naste things to say about the Iriver but I better cool of before I post any of it.

Well, I LOVE my iRiver iFP... It operates as a UMS or through its own program and has never failed me. Firmware is easy to upgrade and this thing has a ton of features.

I also use the Rio Cali. This one runs through its own program and has multiple bookmarks that you can apply. It is expandable using an SD card.

The T30 works with MS media play (major problem for me)
It has a major problem with the battery cover design.( keeps dropping OFF the back)

It doesn't maintain book marks on large files ( Full Albums in one file or ebooksmid chapter)

The singallargest problem is MediaPlayer
Itdoesn't maintain my sort order or play order.
It doesn't read the settings I usefor my files. ( chapter, order, Track,and genre)
