Yes, I have. It is very picky about light-sources. Make sure you have a strong light-source. I'm thinking of getting an audible light-meter app as well, so I know at any given time how much light is in the area. Teresa On Sep 28, 2011, at 3:24 PM, Jeff Berwick wrote: > That is what I thought.

Sorry, I got carried away and forgot about a component of your email. I forget, did they implement vibrating alerts? I am positive they are planning to if it's not done already, but it wasn't in the original release. Is there a french language version? Not that it's really all that difficult

Well, the MP3 player is a bit of a no brainer. It's cheep, less than a hundred bucks. I get 30 hours of listening on a single charge which is important for me since I'm often on the road for 12 hour days. It plays ogg which is not so important to me, but it also plays flac which is crucial.
