This would meet the needs of many of us who use our players to review music or for language learning (not having sound makes it hit-or-miss in "rewinding" to re-listen to a selection), as well as address the concern that some have expressed, that they wouldn't want to lose the very nice current FF/REW accelleration option. And, of course, the FF and REW with sound should be an option that can be turned off as well, for those who don't need/want it.

This is the only major feature advantage I can see at this point that iRiver's firmware has.

I bet that would take you the entire semester . . . .
Good call I like this one.
