Plus other refinements for developers wanting some discreet challenges, such as:

-- FF/REW with sound (as far as I can tell, this is one of the only things that iRiver has that RB doesn't! and it really is needed)
-- ability to use REW to go from the current first song in a folder to the last song in the prior folder
-- a more developed db (well, some people use a db, and it could be fun!)
-- A-B looping during play
-- album skipping (to get to the next folder/album quickly and easily during play, when you don't like the current one, such as while exercising or driving -- the short press + long press combination under iRiver; one of the only other features that comes to mind that iRiver has that RB doesn't, yet)
-- improved navigation in long lists (such as in db song lists--perhaps using a short press + long press combination to go the next letter in the alphabet or down a set amount of listings, or dynamic scrolling in lists?)
-- folder shuffle (shuffle the folders and then play each entire folder).

They seem eminently do-able (and I just wish I had the skills to help in that regard).
