Nobody needs this sort of thing, a unit 1/10th the price will be just as goods. I would not want to meet anyone who buys this piece of hubris.

Looks like the firmware is 1st gen basicness. Much prefer my 4gb Ipod Nano (with Linux Installed (www.ipodlinux.org) Although having a platinum back and diamonds would be cool. My girlfriend would rob me of it in a second, then lose it in the depths of her handbag I think its a bit poor to be honest. Looks like the firmware is 1st gen basicness.

BWAHAHA! I can't even comprehend how they could give this MP3 player all those features and all that bling... but restrict it to a measly 1 Gig. I bought Ms. Worm a Creative Nomad with 40GB two years ago for $200 (£105). Shoot, even my phone Methinks I'm gonna get some bling and pimp my phone... 1 GIGABYTE????? BWAHAHA!
