Congrats on the payback. I'm still waiting to hear from mine. 5 more days and she defaults and paypal awards me anyway. As for scrubbing the partition, I did a dos format, I run windows vista, and it kept giving my explorer issues, so instead of formatting it the easy way (with tools or windows disk manager) I went in dos, scanned the player, found the partition, copied it off so it was safe, then I repartitioned it, gave it the correct format size of 4 gigs and then added back the hidden partition files which now makes it a 3.7gb player. Last night I added pdf ebooks to the player, they show up in explorer button, but won't open. The player now plays all my audio, even flac files (although they are large for the player and can take up the room of 5 normal sized songs). The videos I have added have all been AVM's, their the smallest, and specifically made for handhelds. One movie is approximately 250 MB (180-350MB range) so you can imagine how many full length movies I can get in 4 gigs lmao! Currently I've added 150 songs, and 12 movies and 3 music video's. I can live without the ebook function. Although it does display .txt format files with no problems. The battery lasts about 4 hours when fully charged. Nice thing is that my cell phone charger & car charger are the exact same voltage & plug type. So I am able to not only charge it on my computer, but at any outlet, in the car etc. I was reading a post about a guy that bought a quick charger on ebay for under 10 bucks, and he ran his mp3 off of that giving him a longer playing time. I might look into it and see about extending the battery when I am away from my laptop or a power source.
