iRiver's tech support is awesome. i crashed my player and after 3 phone calls, i got a really cool dude that said that they will exchange it under warranty. the reason i called 3 times was coz the first 2 times they told me that they do not repair player at all and if u send it in under warranty, they simply send u baq a brand new unit. now i am waiting to get mine baq. so i just wanted to let u ppl know that iRiver's tech support is frikin awesome.
