Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2004 14:52:43 -0500 It has been in the 5-15 F (-10 to -15 C) temperature ranges here for the last few days, and I have had my 20GB V1 Recorder in an outside pocket while working or walking out side for 6-8 hours without any problems. Same with my older 6GB player. Never any problem, but your post makes sense. ----- Original Message ----- From: <ajf_at_midmaine.com> To: <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Friday, January 09, 2004 2:15 PM Subject: Re: Cold weather issues? > I think it is unrealistic to expect the Archos to work well after being > subjected to very cold weather. > > My first JBR started having problems after a 1 hour outdoor field > recording session when the temp was below 10 degrees F.
