The first installation is a little hard, but after that updating is really
easy.
And it seems rockbox runs very well on gigabeat at the moment,
even video playback with software eq is very smooth (i've never dared to
dream of this!)
I would say 'get a gigabeat s while you can'.

I've been using rockbox everyday since september 2006 on ipod 5g.
can't live a day without it.
