This sucks because it means I can't install Last.fm software and have my portatunes scrobbd. =( If you have the slightly newer model, you should be able to scrobble. Look into it. Also, must be space foam, because no foam would protect a drive from the shit I've seen this thing undergo. I once hurled it into the maw of a dragon. I once rode it out of an airplane while falling to earth. I sometimes even tease it and call it fat to make sure it stays hard.

It's been through so much, the extra size is more than worth it for the durability. have you ever seen one of these things opened up? there's like quarter inch slab of foam surrounding all the guts. you could even take it out and add another drive if you wanted to (someone on misticriver.net did it once but the site isn't loading atm). I think yours is the model before mine, but on mine you can even watch video with the korean firmware, ^_^. (plus radio, recording from mic/input/radio, etc etc all before the ipod color came out) lol@apple whores I’ve had my iRiver H320 for 3 or 4 years now and it’s just as fabulous as you say.
