Hi. Haven't been very active here lately.   In a month or two I'm getting a new cell phone / smart phone. And while audio use is only one of the aspects to consider, it's something to take into notice too. The possible phones to consider are probably iPhone 4/4S, Samsung Galaxy S II, Nokia...

Thanks. I really think Creative is shooting themself in the leg for giving such a bad service.

As most OS X users here already know, the drivers supplied by Creative are 32-bit only. And since Lion seems to have dropped the default 32-bit support, the audio interface does not work. Having googled the net I found that when one switches the OS back to 32-bit mode, the driver works and the...

Thanks. It really seems to be a choice between E-Mu 0404 and Digidesign Mbox 2 Mini in my case. I just noticed the Mbox is USB powered! I wonder if the USB in my MacBook Pro has enough juice or if I should use a powered hub. One more reason to take the 0404. However, I'm a bit worried about...

Many views and no opinions. I assume the question is too difficult or too common/boring. The retailer in question has the following cards available around the same price or within my price difference paying tolerance: Digidesign Mbox 2 Mini M-Audio Firewire Solo M-Audio FastTrack Pro...

I have some problems with my M-Audio Audiophile USB soundcard and the retailer is letting me replace it with another. The new one should be around the same price or if it is a bit more expensive, I could pay the difference. I'll be using it on a MacBook Pro (early 2008). The main use is...

Heck, I couldn't handle the pressure. Ordered a Sony A818 8GB. Case closed. EDIT: not at 119USD but about 120€ + shipping which isn't that bad... Thanks for the advice!

Guys, please don't mention US prices like that. They make me turn green. I had thought E280 at 100€ (150 USD) was cheap.

How do you people rate the player now nearly a year after this thread was started? Are the mentioned problems still present with the newest firmwares? Can the current players be rockboxed? Thanks. I'm partly tempted by this player due to its relatively low price and the memory card extension...

All the software I found seem to work on Wintel only. Any suggestions? (OS X 10.5.3)

The cheapest I've found this is around 150 euros for the 8GB version, about the same as the Clix 2 8GB goes for. I really wonder which would be the better choice for me. I think 8GBs would probably be enough for music, but then again I just might end up having some space hog video material also...
