...and its been a fantastic little bit of kit for the year or more I've owned it.
I'd agree with the comment above in theory, but in practice given that you charge it from the PC USB, its a breeze to just drag albums over. I have never really understood the need people have to carry 30,000 tracks around with them every single place they go, 4gb has been more than adequate to the point I seldom have it filled up at any time even including the odd converted movie. Which brings me to my next point. Have the sync issues been sorted out as the playback on the 4gb had a habit of going out of sync, most people got around it by splicing the film (a forum member posted a superb script for linux users to convert and splice the movie all automagically)?
All in all, would I buy another if/when this one packs up... absolutely :]
