♥♥♥♥ Colossal Waste Of Time
Did someone say file management? Race through and install ALL of your image files and convert them into a form that you can do nothing with. Take your totally useable .mp3 files and turn them into unusable and unmangageable .sat files. Next, make trying to move these files off and on to the gigabeat to avoid duplicates impossible. Trying to prepare this unit for sale on Amazon, I found no reference to returning to original factory settings at hand. Using Windows XP sp2 to format the drive was a mistake. I hadn't found this out until I sold the unit and was looking for any missing documentation. It was no use anyway, The unit would bring back things that you've deleted. The Gigabeat room software would tell you that something is there when unplugged it isn't. There isn't any Toshiba factory support. The 1.1 USB is hell-of-slow especially with 2 Gigabytes worth of 700K files. This unit is generally hostile towards non-commercial music such as my 78s collection on .mp3, my recorded gigs of David Kafinetti (from spinal tap) with bird sounds, train sounds and people I find the need to record. This thing does not do well with those. Why do you people always want to see a "Genre". Sansa was like that also. What on earth is up with you people? I will not have my musical tastes pigeonholed. Thank you not. Towards the end, it stopped working altogether with the 2.0 USB, Always switched my 1024x768 SVGA to low-res VGA, and slowed all other processes to a crawl while losing track of itself. A complete and utter failure at filling MY need to put my favorite old 78 records into a form that I can listen to often. Don't waste your time on this one as it most assuredly will.
