don't know if someone has confirmed it yet but Sony Style UK seems to confirm the 'new' 800 series uses the WM port

Haha. I know what you mean. i got my shiny new A808 back in July and going to sony style uk today I see the entry price is 169.99 (the price I paid) but you get a case that I paid 20£ for thrown in for free!! I'm pretty bummed, especially as at the moment I have to export my itunes playlists and then import them into sonictsgae everytime i want to update music on the device. The only redeeming factor was I liked the conversion to 64kbps ATRAC as it meant I could get a lot more ont he device without a huge quality loss.....Pretty sure i could do similar in WMP though!!! Bring on a new firmware although I won't hold my breath....emailed both the sony store I purchased from and sony style....will post if I get anything.

I get a pop up that informs me that the program i supdating the SonicStage Database and will be reloaded when this is complete. It does not reload. I have tried versions 3-4.3 and always get the same results. I have used the MDAC tool and both sections of the sticky thread in this forum for fixing problems with the MDAC none of which have worked for me. Are there any other things that I should do? Matt
