Default v9.xx Player Reliability

Have anyone noticed the recent trend of v9.xx players dying for no apparent reason?

I've seen many cases where after a few weeks of usage, the player just refuses to start, or show the ever so familiar hour glass. This happens even though it has been properly formatted to remove any hacks.

From my memory, I don't recall the v3.xx players acting this way. Most were because of wrong firmware updates, or due to the memory hack corrupting the firmware. My v3.xx gen1 clone is still working upto today, about 13 months after i bought it.

Poor hardware quality?
Or poor firmware coding?

It`s like an MP3 Player which plays Music CDs only.


T39 doesn''t sound as good as my T29
