i ordered one of these roughly 2 days before the nano clones disappeared so as soon as i get it ill post a review of it and compare it to the FMP1.8. the Bianca is apparently physically smaller than the Glacier. if need be i can also post what chipsets it uses with pics of internal components and how to pull it apart, although it might not interest anyone.

i previously owned a Glacier that just died, usually a 10 - 15% failure rate is good but it cant be proved if its all hardware fault or its picky with certain things. the failures could be caused buy the wall charger that is included, it could be from not disconnecting from computer properly, the generic battery that is included.

for example, when the FMP1.8 is not disconnected correctly it resets settings back to default. when i have my FMP plugged into the wall charger and the battery is fully charged when the player screen "dims" the backlight flashes. when plugged into computer the back light operates fine.

one thing i did notice is that the included USB cables with most MP4 players cant transfer current very well. how i found out was i have an external hdd that is usb powered and with the included cable (much thicker gage and better shielding) i can power it and work with 1 usb connector plugged in,
BUT when i try to use the cheap MP4 cable the drive doesn't even spin up. weather this actually means anything or not i think its interesting
