pyro, thats good news, I am sure there are many genuine sellers on ebay we just generally only hear about the bad ones, 40 quid sounds like a pretty good buy as well. Don't forget to backup your firmware for safty and if you get time upload it to site. Enjoy your player

Hey Spawn_20240 - have you opened up your player and seen what you have on the inside? Have you loaded up the player to full capacity and played all the songs? The 4GB's dont exist yet, I know someone who has connections with manufacturers do I know directly when they will be out.

Spawn_20240,

(make sure you backup the files you want to keep first).

Try to FORMAT your player using the "Disk Tool" as part of the MP3 Player Utilities. When you format it, make sure you use "Low" format and on the "partition/encryption" tab at the top, change it to say "0MB" otherwise you might have problems with partitions and encryptions to your disk after the format.

After the low format, check how much disk space is free now. This will give you a much better indication as to how much disk space is on your player.
