Regarding prices

[Vic20]

MisticRiver has recieved pricing info for the iFP-1000 Series.

iFP-1090 (256mb) - $279.99
iFP-1095 (512mb) - $369.99

Although paying more for the same amount of memory. I think that the price is right. I thought they would price it at 400. I am glad they didnt. Still it seems alot for a player that holds 512 with no 2.0. I think this player would be great for people who needs somthing with color and alot of nice things. The reason why I am getting one is because it looks way better then the crafts. Also 7meg diffrents on transfer dosent matter to me. If that usb 2.0 was like 480megs...Lol of course i'll change my mind. No UMS...downside for me when i want to transfer. Atless my school has a T3 and student folders. Hmm cell phones with mp3 and camera. Well i think thats jsut dangerous. Cell phones gives off radiation and they dont have firmware upgrades(iRiver will be back to normal after all these players come out). I heard from someone or jeff say that they allow uploading songs to you pc. But we'll see in the US. Oh yea i saw in a korean review that they have some type of smart firmware where they tell you what new updates there are and more.

Sorry this wasnt educational or organized. Just wanted to pour out some stuff.

My friends gettign the 256 and iam getting the 512.

I want to thank jeff for all this great information. , you ignored my first pm so i guess i'll jsut post this :P

Hmmm... must have missed the PM. I get a lot of them, not intentional I can assure you. iRiver Music Manager does have a feature where you can automatically upgrade the firmware via the internet. Not sure if that's what you're speaking of here.

iFP-1090 (256mb) - $279.99 - too steep for me for a color 256mb

$369.99 US???????????????????? ???

Holy :P That's more expensive than my IHP120! and it holds 240 times more music :P

roushfan, To me its all about the size and portability. You might like how big and heavy your H20 is but i like my mp3 player light and flash. I dont want to worry about the HDD gettign hurt or anything. I know its expencive but its just nice to have just in case u want to take a picture of something you know? The iFP-1095 costed me $430USD in total. Also its perfect for me because i dont download too much music, and i dont have too many songs i want to listen all in one trip. I usually jsut play like 6 songs over and over untill i get bored and go for another =)
