Oh, wow, this is awesome to hear. I did stop looking for a sansa some
weeks ago, because of this missing feature. But now it does become very
interesting again.

But now I have some questions regarding the sansa:

* "Rockbox does support the e200 series." Does this mean, that e.g. the
e280 is supported, too? (Then I would change the description on the web
page to e2x0 series!)

* Can you recommend the sansa player? Is the sound ok? Are there some
drawbacks that one should know about?

* How do I copy music files on it (onto the internal flash ram) if the
usb handler is not yet working? Is there a good chance that it will be
supported one day?

Are there any other differences than memory size and included fm-card
between these players:

e250 2GB
e250 FM 2GB
e260 4GB
e260 FM 4GB
e270 6GB
e280 8GB
e280 FM 8GB

I think the e260 FM 4GB has the best cost/performance ratio.

Or is it better to have a bigger internal memory size because perhaps it
requires less battery power or has faster access or something than an
additional flash card?

Thanks,
Gert
