What would be a great feature?

[eli_sherer]

all of you that talking about screen savers and floating song title
i think this is not possible cause the thing is that the iriver has n idle
mode which in it works in 11Mhz instead of 45MHz so things might be different
about dim lcd it's already possible cause the black screen isn't really black
you can see the screen but it's really dark just squeeze your eyes and see!

for me, the most appreciated features would be AM radio support and - SWEET - an application that allows usb connection of a gps reciever.

hell, a gba can run it - see redsky mobile - so why wouldn't a h300 be able to?

Eli, as a side note I tried your Rock Word - SImply amazing for what it can do for the H3x0 line. I will not use it much because I have a pocket PC for correspondence on the road but this is a truly useful application for those who need it. It is the first truly useful tool for the H3xo line other than music.

Just to let you know that AM Support would require hardware that isn't present in the H300

GPS Support (via the USB Host) would be a nifty feature, though ...

Or maybe just have the wps over the album art, and have an algorithm that looks at the album art colour spread and displays the wps in contrasting colours.

I think that using record to toggle screens would be cool, but the album art could just be a part of the wps similar to battery indicator etc...

Keep on requesting all this nifty features, really! But isn't it a good idea to think of features that can be made in a short time period? I mean less complex things we already know they are usefull and capable to be made.

There are some features that are compatible with rockbox, but not with Iriver. Examples:
- A clock
- An alarm
- A wake up alarm
- mp3 splitter

Personally i'd like a PDF viewer and MS office doc's (doc,ppt,xls) viewer, but i think these features are also only to dream of.
I'd also like a simple html-browser (easy for reading the rockbox wiki on your own rockbox device!)

There are some C/C++ written PDF viewers aren't there? (XPDF for example) is it possible to port them to RB? an html-viewer are also written in C(++)?

PDF Viewer would be a dream for me...

I really want movies because that would complete the use of my mp3 player.

Although I can just boot into regular firmware...would be nice to have it in RB

Do you have a link on that subject? I couldn't find anything...
