Further down reading the IFP-1000 specification, one can read:
FM Tuner: S/N Ratio 60 dB
Above is an improvment over IFP-300 / IHP-100 series - only 50 dB then using FM. So unless its a typo, its more or less certain that all FM-equipped 2004 players also will have this radio with less background noice.
Of course; 18mW x 18mW (50% increase) will come handy in crowded city-areas.
And although IFP-1000 only comes USB 1.1 it will be slighly more effective: Approx 7.2 Mbps compared to 6.4 Mbps with the IFP-300 series. And according to below source USB 2.0 + flashplayer in reality means up to 14.4 Mbps

Nice rubine-red color by the way. Perhaps H-300 comes with that color as well.
