For any1 that still has an old Archos Jukebox...

There is a 3rd party firmware upgrade called ''Rockbox'' ( www.rockbox.org/ )that is ez to install. One of the many advantages is the playlist improvement. Virtually unlimited number of songs and it loads the playlist in under 2 seconds. It will also shuffle.
The result? A GIANT shuffle player. I created playlists using musicmatch (the only one you CAN use) and copied them over. I did it by genre with an all-inclusive ''ALL'' playlist with all 7GB on it.
I now have a ''Forrest Gump'' MP3 player: I never know what I'll get.

The old Studio 10 has been very trusty over the years and has stood up to alot of abuse. Waiting for a large capacity Flash player to come out sometime in the future before I upgrade.

wow, this is great...my Studio 10 has been sitting in my desk for the past few months; this will delay my next mp3 player purchase for a while. I like the spoken word menus.
