I dont know why you guys are complaining about the display being on the remote. At least for me, that'd be an absolutely great feature to have... being a runner. I've been searching for alternatives to the ipod for a while now and was nearly sold on the sony but read some bad reviews for it (it requires additional software and some weird audio format) then i stumbled on this thread. that looks great! When you're running as much as I am, you dont want to be taking the unit off your arm or belt to see the display, what better way than to have it on a wire/remote combo, i could hold that part in my hand while the unit is stationary and browse through songs (if i even care what song plays next, usually i have it on shuffle until i get one i want) its lighter and less bulkier plus the FM radio/recording are great additions. I've got a crapload of mp3s and i dont want to deal with itunes sorting. i think im sold on this... thanks
I dont know where to begin with this guy, he seems to encompass all that makes office guys weird minus the toys on his desk... he's got the creativity of a fruitbat. I'm on a webteam with the guy and he considers himself the leader of our pack b/c he's been here for years. Our client is ATF and the guy is convinced he IS an ATF AGENT! HIS POSTINGS SAVES LIVES!! He's so gungho about this mediocre web maintenance job it drives me nuts. Hats, badges, pins, plaques of and even a baseball with ATF tattooed all over them decorate his cube. also any picture of ww2 planes and submarines. and my favorite, every email ever sent to him for the past 6 years clutters his desk. he doesn't take lunch, he sits 5 inches from the monitor and picks his nose and eats boogers and finger nails at meetings. Every conversation is about his wife, his kid getting beat up at school or about submarines. In emails he'll use words like "whilst" and excessive punctuation?!?!!!!? Plus he talks to me like im a crewman on his ship. "Steady lad, steady" "Easy as she goes" "Okay troops, whilst reviewing the customers request..." blah blah blah. He'll CC managers and team leads on even the most insignificate emails. I can't stand looking at him either, he'll wear vibrant horse jockey looking polo shirts over his bloated torso and girlish arms and super thick Milton glasses. Well.. i guess thats enough for now cuz i have a meeting, i'll let you all know how many boogers he devours this time! Oh and about "Jum" to annoy him i purposely mistype his name in emails every once in a while.. Jim.. Jum.. simple error for a touch typist and boy does he hate it!
