I'm becoming increasingly optimistic about the QP1 Pro - really looking forward to hearing it.
 
 
Now, look very carefully at the images below - do you notice anything that wasn't obvious in the CES photos, on page 1 of this thread?
 
 

 
 
 
 
...did you see it?
 
 
Look at the center of the scrollwheel. So now we finally know that there is a hardware Play/Pause button.
 
That's a relief, for those of us who need to operate the DAP in our pocket, without having to switch-on the screen to visually navigate a software play-pause actuator.
 
 
BTW, Questyle is pronounced like QUESTyle, not Que-Style

   (yeah, I've been saying it wrong, too! LOL)

Just a quick 'bump'  Hope some Canadian dealers get hold o' some units.

@ Questyle:
 
I'd still like to know if this DAP has playlist support, please.

Interesting....hope to see this soon in Europe!!!

That's iPod classic UI !

That's iPod classic UI !

 
 
Yeah, I noticed that, too, but I was being polite to not mention the elephant in the room!

 
 
 
Might just be a mock-up graphic, or... maybe it really is a Linux mimic of iPod Classic firmware (which would suit me just fine - I actually really like the iPod Classic firmware - especially the great playlist functionality)

Ah!  Hope so.  The classic had an easy-to-remember treeview system.

Hi guys,
Estimated release date?
Maybe april?

  Hi guys,

I'd really like to see some more direct input, from the horses mouth, from the Questyle team, in this thread (and the same goes for Soundaware, in their Esther DAP thread)
 
 
All I can see, thus far, in relation to your question, Mistyc, is the following:
 

 /img/forum/go_quote.gif
"...general availability in late April, possibly including an upgraded screen. We’ll have to wait and see on that — but not long, as Bruce plans to show fully-funcitonal pre-shipping units at CanJam SoCal in late March out in Newport Beach, CA."
 

 
but obviously, that estimate may no longer be accurate, such has been the silence from Questyle, in the past several days.

Hey guys!

Sorry for our absence from the thread, we've been super busy getting everything ready for CanJam SoCal 2015!

For CanJam 2015, in the Questyle booth we will have fully functioning pre-production prototypes of both the QP1 & QP1R for you to see and hear, as well as a new little surprise!! We will also be accepting preorders at the show and expect to be shipping preorders towards the end of April, with all others to follow beginning in June.

Just to let you all know, for CanJam, we will have both a booth and a room!

The Questyle Audio booth will also be showcasing our entire line of award winning Personal Audio products, including, the CMA800R "Current Mode" headphone amplifier, the CMA800i Current Mode AMP/True DSD DAC all in one unit, the Q192 24/192 DAC/AMP budget combo unit, and our CAS192D stand alone “True DSD” DAC! All cables and accessories will be provided by AnnaLyric Products!

In the Questyle Audio Room, we will be demonstrating our critically acclaimed Audiophile 5G Wireless audio system, featuring our R100, 200wpc mono blocks, and T2, Line Stage/Transmitter, driving the phenomenal Mythology M1 Hybrid-Electrostatic full range speaker system from Enigma Acoustics! All cables, power cords, will be via AnnaLyric Products!

We are really looking forward to CanJam and hope to see you there!

[Questyle]

Yes Mython, both the QP1 & QP1R have playlist support.

 

[Mython]

Yes Mython, both the QP1 & QP1R have playlist support.

 
Thankyou.
 
1) Multiple playlists, or just one?
 
2) Can playlists be created on the DAP, or must they be created using a computer (e.g. .m3u), and then transferred to the DAP?
 
3) Is the number of tracks per playlist limited or infinite?  (within reason, of course)
