I got a Multimedia 20 and this leads to a worse problem. The Rockbox guys point out very clearly that their firmware doesn't work on the Multimedia models.
I really like my box but it is a bit slow, so I wondered about starting another firmware project for the Multimedia models. Would be nice to be able to view plain text files... I don't think I'm up to it just now but I'd like to know if anybody else had that idea.
But it IS a cool box. I'm a musician and I use it to record in the rehearsing room. 160kb VB MP3 is ok for that purpose. And it's SUCH a show off to be able to ask people "btw, have you seen our video?" and just show it to them on the spot:)

Well, that's a thought - but the interesting thing is when they'll start talking back...
However somebody did beat them to it a long while ago: Msi2Xml.
