Not surprising really. Such a great player at that price.
Maybe they'll find more stock tomorrow. xD
Hopefully!
I feel that the flash storage on my iPod Touch is dying so the X1 might be the right replacement for it.

Does anyone screen lag when changing tracks? Often when I skip it still shows the art and info of the previous tracks for a solid five seconds.
Hi Joe
Thanks to you and several others who made suggestions re my "stuttering" problem with the X1--again, what a helpful community here. I returned the X1 and the Transcend 32gb Class 10 card to B&H Photo and got an immediate replacement (nice customer service, by the way). I formatted the new card in the new player (which came with firmware 1.2) and then used a card reader to import, as one batch, a number of 16/44 wav albums and one or two 24/192 flac albums. There were no stray files of other types. It didn't take long to get stutters. I counted 16 incidents playing 6 wav tracks from the first album I tried. Oddly, when I replayed the same album from the beginning, the stutters went away. (Is there some sort of buffering effect even though the X1 has no on-board memory?) I've tried a few other albums and the stuttering continues (although not as bad as the first album).
Before I returned the original Transcend card, I stuck it in another DAP (not a FIIO) which played everything I tried without incident.
You guys are going to laugh--I got the X1 for my two year old who has become quite the headphone listener. Maybe he won't care about the occasional stuttering... but I would!

Great, thank you - just been looking at the FiiO site and have downloaded the latest firmware to a FAT32 micro SD in readiness...Have you tried a 128GB card with the player? And any experience with SanDisk Media Manager as a way of getting files on to the X1?
Ah right - thanks for that - I will do that then.
Once I know what I'm doing I may well get hold of a bigger card - I'm a bit old school, like to have as much of my music with me as I can.
Looking forward to seeing how it plays in the car too, hopefully the USB connection will work.
So...just ordered the 'champagne' edition with a 64GB card (Amazon). I presume it will come with 'old' firmware...is updating it a big deal? Looking forward to playing around with it!
