I got the 16Gb version, and it should be here by tomorrow. However what I wonder is the problem I hear associated with it.
I heard rockbox is being ported to it. Is it an acceptable firmware replacement, or simply a pre release that can play music?
Does the firmware need to format the D2 every time that it is updated? It seems outdated, and I'm wondering if the newest firmware is acceptable for audio playback, and if they have gapless playback yet. I also heard about the annoyance of the GUI needing several clicks before playback is changed and whatnot.
Are the buttons on it useful in any way if I keep it in my pocket most of the time? I don't expect it to do anything besides play/pause, next, prev and have volume control buttons.
Is the battery user removable and replaceable or is it not?
Is there a remote control marketed for the D2? I'm interested in purchasing one.
Does it handle drops well? I'm buying a case but I don't want to take any chances with such an expensive piece of hardware.
Thanks.
