Not to sound like a deek or anything, but I'll believe it when I see it. You'll all have to forgive me if I seem a bit suspicious or untrusting when it comes to what Iriver has to say. Looking at their web site now, it's just the biggest goof and mess of a site.
I now know what Austonia was complaining about when he said he couldn't find the firmware updates. The site has changed a little bit and it's totally unorganized. No news section, no updates section, and information strewn about like a mentally challenged person put it together.
As far as the post about the updates goes, I wouldn't put it past some person to fake a post by iriver and make such a joke. On top of that, IF this really is genuine, I'm STILL not getting my panties all moist. Let's see if the features are even implamented correctly. Yes...trust me...there's a way to screw it up.
On a positive note, if it's real, it's about time. But there's still NO excuse for their behavior..what makes NO sense to me is, if you're a company who is constantly getting flak for things, and your customers are ALWAYS complaining, WHY, if you know that you're going to address the issues, would you wait until the last minute to finally say that you're taking action ? I would think that the right thing to do, would be to make sure that the people never get to the point of where they're constantly arguing and complaining.
So...w/e. Good luck to all of us.

P.S. So bangraman, with this in mind, you still selling it ?
