Yes, it works, but it's only a half-ass implementation. Only a midrange bitrate spectrum works (96-192 or thereabouts) which is very crippling for those of us who want to use ogg as it was intended, and that's in the low bitrate range (~64kbps)! Not to mention those audiophiles who want the higher bitrates (I don't see the point personally as I can't readily heard the differences between ogg & mp3 above 128 kbps, or at least, haven't trained my ears to do so). Oh, and I have the imp-350, however it's the same for all IMP units, every last one is confined in this way. Iriver LOVES to drag their heels so much so, that, they're going to find themselves in some major financial trouble if they don't own up to their original best intentions and re-focus their efforts on the customers again.
