A good improvement that can be done that way is adding an option to turn off the screen and power led, while the device remains on. That would be quite an improvement, considering it saves battery life (short and long term) and the screen itself is annoying while on top of the e09k.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but you can try switching the "Hold" button. It should have a similar result to what you are asking for.

Oh, but not sure about my suggestion if it is being used with the E09K. Sorry.

Good to hear! Cheers

And thanks again for telling me about the USB power settings, Soundsgoodtome. I haven't had any problems since I changed it.

Doh! YouTube just crapped out on me. Had to close down Chrome and reload. So the problem is still there, but it's less persistent than before. Is there anything else I should try?

The only problem with the Hold Button, which is a great idea BTW, is that if you shut off the E09K the E17 will not turn off with the Hold Button switched down.
 
No biggie just flip the Hold Button up before you turn the unit off.

so is the e17 a considerable upgrade (simply comparing theSQ) when compared with the e10?

my E17, ever since I bought it, does not hold charge for longer than a few days (about close to a week). is this normal?
 
if I charge it to a decent say full bars on the display and leave it for a week it will say bye bye when it turns on and I have to charge for a good 10-15 mins before it can even turn on.
 
is this normal?

Battery life for E17 is 10-15 hours. So it's normal if it doesn't last a week. Also, E7 also takes few mins of charge before you can turn on, so I don't think you have a defective one. It's normal.

Its normal from what I can tell.

The same thing with not being able to open for a while after it said "bye" is common on many devices like iphones.

Yep. A few days depending on usage. As said above. Igot around 12-14 hours with it. Which basically was a few days per charge

Tried that and it works, as it turns off the screen (though not the led). Gotta read that instruction manual first.
 
It does introduce the small annoyance TrollDragon wrote about and I didn't try it with headphones, so no idea if the device is affected somehow.

This is the website address and they are not telling proper shipping method.  In the website you can see the telephone number
 
I really want to buy E17 now and X3 in the future but I am really stuck

No, after I charge it until it doesn't charge, I DON'T use it for a week and it's dead. is that normal?

For mine, yes - I found it as strange as you do, but thhat's the way it seems to be.
 
If I charge my iRiver H120 and the E17 both fully and don't use them for a week, then switch them on the iRiver is still fully-charged and the E17 is dead-flat - yes, it is inconvenient.

I didn't 'not' use it for a week after charge. But once, I charged it and didn't use it for a day or two. I did lose a bar of battery.

That's because Off is not truly Off, its in a standby mode waiting for the touch of the button or a power signal from the dock. The standby circuitry they use just draws a little too much power. I like a nice switch that disconnects the battery when off. That way months later when you turn it on there is still a majority of the charge left. Doesn't help with dock signals but you can't have it all...
