How'd you guys deal with the filename browsing instead of the traditional by song title? It's driving me nuts. I also often play in shuffle mode and I would prefer it not to be completely shuffled meaning I can still go back to the previously played songs and go forward with the same songs in the play lists just like in the Ipod Nano 7.

re bluetooth in new firmware. I don't want to tempt fate but I have a pair of savfy wireless earbuds that have worked flawlessly for the last hour. They used to drop out frequently using the previous firmwares.

I have updated to v2, and it seems stable on my device.
 
One thing I have noticed is the new replay gain function only seems to be working on FLAC files, and ignores the tag on MP3 files... Because of that am leaving the option off for the time being

For MP3s, you can use the program MP3 gain.  It normalizes your MP3s to a set level.  It comes default at 89 dB.  I use 90 dB personally.  It is completely reversible.  I've been using that for about 10 years with MP3s.

I use the foobar tool, it applies the same tags to both flacs and mp3s, the M1 reads the FLAC's tags no problem, but seems to ignore the MP3's tags:

You should upgrade!! The replay gain is a new feature added.. other than that there is plenty of goodness, my current fav feature is the page by page scroll added to the up dowb buttons.

Seems you really enjoy the upgrade,great!
