So i just got mine. right off the bat Microsoft didnt dissapoint with its stupidity. the thing keeps turning on and off when i plug it into the computer and the machine wont shut up about “your device can perform faster if you use a 2.0 usb port” every 15 seconds. the software for it isnt even on the supplied cd. the hell do ya put one in for if it downloads it from the web(at an incredibly dumb ass snail pace0. so im still messing with it. ill update this as i get it to work and stuff ---

well, ive got it installed now. i trasnfered some stuff on it. seems to work just fine for me. overall its not bad. its got a good size screen on it. interface is simple enough to use. i wish i could delete things using the device without hooking it up to the machine. it was 100 bucks shipped, so thats a pretty good. im intending to find out what the tv out function does and how to use it, cuz if i can get movies to play on my normal tv off that thing, it’d be fun. so so far its pretty good. it came with some preloaded content, but i think its goin right out. i had to name it, so heres mine: ![http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2027/2040650100_4bc8821292_o.jpg](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2027/2040650100_4bc8821292_o.jpg) ---

its not bad so far. the SQ guy in me wishes for a more complex equalizer or at least more settings, but the minimalist in me is happy that theres only 3 buttons on the front of it
