High Albert, Thank you for posting this! I have a cell phone that doubles as an MP3 player, but I'm not to happy with it. So I am looking for another MP3 player and or Ipodder. Preferencely, 1 that will play lossless audio files such as WMA or wave. But it has to be user friendly for me, a blind person. So I will read this review while hitting both the internet stores and loco stores alike as well. My best regards.
