From anythingbutipod review "web searches and calls to Sandisk tech support confirm that they do not sell replacement clips for this player." Doesn't look good. Personally I'd buy a 1gb and then resell it without the clip.

I own an HD500 and getting a Sansa clip tomorrow. If I can remember, I'll post my impressions here. For the record, the JVC is the best sounding player I have ever heard period. Including Iaudio X5, Sony 818, various Samsung, iRiver ifp 140 and 899..(never heard an iMOD though) They're very...

Lots of reviews here..one person said they sounded worse than the ipod stock earbuds Amazon.com: Logitech FreePulse Wireless Headphones: Electronics

I bought Vishay/dale 47ohm resistors to replace the pod on my Altec Lansing IM716 IEM's... Just noticed they're 0.6W though, instead of the .25W I wanted. Any problem using these? Don't really want to go through the hassle of re-odering and the waiting time.

The 829 was at a Sony Style store here in Canada for $329..close to the US price now. They're a lot larger than I expected, a little too large for me actually. I prefer my a818. I used my Altec IM716 phones...do not get these if you like your Clear Bass
