Date: Thu, 17 Jun 2004 17:21:46 +0100 I am thinking of getting an XClef/Ripdrive, as my Archos JBR is really starting to lose it (loose contacts are making it powercycle if it gets squeezed, I can barely use it when moving around unless I find the perfect spot in my bag) so I'm certainly interested in this. However, I think I'm more likely to hold onto my JBR until I can get a better engineered MP3 player with Rockbox on it. Joe PS.
