I dont have as many tracks. Maybe around 5000 divided between the internal and an external 64gb card. Yes, its noticeably smother and the irony is as I type that the Jr. just hung. hahahahaha! Anyway, I was one of those who complained about the lag of the previous firmware and I just learned to live with it. Im very happy with this update. Its smother and noticeably faster.
I may bring her back home. I'm going to see what others say also. Thanks

Your welcome and If your only issue prior was the lag I think you will be happy with version 1.03
  Many thanks raze94.

Your welcome. If anyone has goldenears and ears and cares to comment on the sound signature it seems more detailed and a tad warmer to me. I have been playing through multiple sources for the past few days I could just be imagining things.

Just tried to download from their site and got a Korean error message. Is anyone else getting this? Unfortunately it is an image and won't translate.

Go to iriverinc, not iriver. Their international site is better, even for a Korean like me :p

They must have pulled it as I can download their 1.0.2 but 1.0.3 throws the error on both sites. The error URL is http://www.iriver.co.kr/notfind_url.asp. Thanks for trying.

Downloaded my update today with no problems. The update definately speeds things up. I am using it as a DAC to listen to music from my computer at work and it sounds great! It may be my imagination but the bass seems to be a bit more pumped up! I like it.

I updated the device to 1.03 though I don't expect too much from what looks to a minor upgrade due to support description:
 
[Newly added or revised functions]
 
1) Operation Stabilization

 
Still listening and enjoying in the mean time
