Re: [IRCA] Bought an iRiver IFP-795T

["CHARLES HUTTON" <charlesh3@xxxxxxx>]

I'd check this out at Iriver. Their initial versions of the I-7xx and I-8xx 
didn't appear as normal flash drives to Windows and didn't directly use mp3 
& wma files - they had a proprietary format. That has all been changed in 
the newer versions of their firmware which are downloadable from iRiver.
