I don't like changing players everytime a new minute advance in technology comes along. Do you think it is worth me trading in my old player (see link below) for a hi-md unit? Thanks. http://www.etedeschi.ndirect.co.uk/sony/picts/WM1.jpg

I have a question. How exactly is everyone coping with the excruciatingly painful wait for the 900 and NH1? Personally I'll likely be opting for the 900, although I'd want to read reviews from a few different sources first. Being from the UK unfortunately that means I won't have one in time for hols. WAAAHHHH!

Sorry scrap that second question, it clearly isn't. Could anyone provide a link that shows a decent quality picture of what the external battery pack looks like when attached to (any) MD unit; I'm having trouble finding one.

-As the 900 is the only hi-md player to have a jog dial on the unit itself, what exactly do the dials on the lower models do? -I'm not entirely familiar with external battery cases (although one thread shows a picture on an older MD model), but just to confirm is that what the black base thing at the bottom of the unit in your product pages is?

Will the new hi-md units be compatible with existing car adaptor kits?

Trying to decide between a Creative Muvo 2 and a hi-md player. Recently read on another forum how a Muvo 2 user was unable to rip his CDs using the provided MediaSource software because the CDs he was using 'do not support digital ripping'. Does anyone know why this is, how I can tell if I am in the same situation and if he would have the same problems if he had bought a Hi-md player with it's associated software?
