This is one of the smartest moves that iRiver has made in a very
long time. No longer will you by default have to use their proprietary
application to get media onto the device. This opens the way for the
iRiver MP3 players to be used easily with Windows Media Player. I know
several Podcasters are jumping for joy.
I was able to sync my Podcast subscriptions very easily with
Windows Media player. The following link takes you to the IFP-700

Firmware Upgrade 700 Series]
iRiver Adds Ogg To Audio Player Firmware12/24/2003 09:18 PM Sesse writes "iRiver has just released firmware updates for its
iFP-300T and iFP-500T flash memory-based audio player series.
According to a news story on ...
There's a rumbling in the
iRiver support forums, and depending on who you ask, it's either the
overblown groaning of a few dissatisfied customers, or the sound of
thousands of unhappy users forsaking iRiver for the likes of Archos,
Creative, and (lord help them), Apple. The issue is one of firmware,
and a lack of updates for the H Series (specifically the iHP-100) line
of hard disk players. In April, iRiver promised
firmware fixes for the players, like on-the-fly file deletion and
playlists, as well as a fixed shuffle mode and gapless playback. But
then in May, the firmware was delayed<
/a>, and since the original June release date for a second
firmware release has come and gone, some users are getting very
upset.

I use my Shuffle
regularly, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't cheat on it with other
flash players. The iRiver T20 is kind of like that cool young thing at
the office, all flash and excitement. You just want to pop out its
sensuous USB port again and again while the poor, morose Shuffle sits
around the house waiting to yell at you when you walk through the
door. "I have a lanyard," it screams to you as you hit the fridge for
a beer. "I have a lanyard!"
The T20 includes an LCD screen (!!!), line-in MP3 recording, and
plays Ogg files. Priced at $99 for 512MB and
$139 [UPDATE - It's Pounds, baby, Pounds, not
Dollars. I don't know. Multiply by two, essentially, to get dollars.]
for the 1GB model, I'm thinking that if you're considering a flash
player, you may want to consider one of these instead of that
plain-Jane Shuffle.
