Leonard-
Thanks for the update. All my videos were converted ages ago with the Cucusoft Zune software (when I had the Zune), and they're nearly all in a Sony-friendly format. And you're right about putting the jpeg in the video folder, that's what I had to do with the 829. There's no software to do that automatically I don't think.

I did some back-to-back testing with the Touch 2G today, and while I really like the Touch, I prefer the X. So if I could only keep one, it would be the X. It's altogether clearer, livelier and more musical, no contest for me. But when the Touch isn't being compared critically, it sounds great. It's only in direct comparison and when I'm specifically looking for differences that it's noticeable. Of course, now that I've heard the difference, it's hard to listen to the Touch without feeling I'm missing something.

No problem for me as it is still loud enough but it did made me check my serial number(5010113) and wonder if there might be a volume cap of some sort on it.. Service menu would be handy!

Also still unable to connect to youtube via the menu icon, normal www wireless further ok though. Do you need to be located in the UK to be able to use the Youtube icon?

I still have a couple on pre-order for other people from Amazon but I'm pretty sure they won't want to wait any longer to get the cheaper price at Play
