Is it one of those long, circular things? They're quite good. There were a load of factory rejects of this MP3 player on eBay, my brother bought 3, one for mum, one for me and one for him. Mum's was built all back to front and the screen didn't work on mine!

Packardbell you are kidding. They couldn't make a cardboard box properly.

Yeh, really, had one of their NEW 486SX/25 machines (10+ years ago). Overpriced and underperforming!

Packard Bell actually exists still? I thought they'd have been bought out/gone bankrupt by now. And if they were bought out which company would continue to use the Packard Bell name which has a terrible reputation? LOL.

Anyway the 16 colour LCD backlight is no big deal, I'm sure you can find many devices with this. Colour change backlights have been on car head units and cellphones (older ones since they're all real-colour now pretty much) for several years. In fact most of them can do thousands of colours, not just 16, by varying the shades of each basic colour very subtly...

just one question though, why would you ever need a 16 color lcd backlight? it just a gimmick with no real prupose

It's for those moody people, lol. Like you know different mood, different colour? haha. Or for those that get bored of the same colour backlight on a monochrome LCD. For everyone else there's full colour LCDs, lol...

Hmmmm... wonder if it would work as a gimmick... or if Sony would think about it... :rolleyes:

I dunno, how many people have bought a RH-10 for 100$ more than a RH-910 just for the OLED screen? Hunh? How many? Hehe

I'm guilty :D

Have different screen saver animations like those little perfume-bottle ATRAC flash players. A fireplace for when you picked red, bubbles for blue.

Or have the whole case in a multi-colored OLED screen like those on-off tinted windows. People outside Japan will no longer get model-colour envy!

Fun just thinking about it.
