Wow. Is that really how this project views its users? That will put off more people than the battery life issue ever could. I guess I would counter that users who cannot be bothered to read the written materials will never succeed in installing the bootloader, and thus will not be affected by the battery life problem. For the rest, a prominent note in the installation instructions should be a sufficient word to the wise. I still think that H3xx Rockbox is an improvement over the stock firmware in enough ways that it is worth making generally available. If the project would rather leave it out of the 3.0 release, it's not a huge deal, though; as has been pointed out, those of us who want it can still find it. jon Received on 2006-06-01 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
