Thank You for your continued support and contributions!
Got it. I will talk to our team to see if we can add this feature onto our new player. Thanks!

hunterleo,that is great!Do you already have a pricerange where this player should sit?
A12 does play OGG files.
Make it smallIn the same ballpark as the sansa plus & zips. I want to clip my player on the neck of my tshirt, the hem of my shirt etc, to be easily accessible to pause, skip etc. I don't wanna fumble around in my pocket.
I see on your site that the x12 is stated to only accept up to 64 gb, but Sansa said the same about the plus & zip... in reality a FAT formatted 128 has always worked for me. I hope it will on your coming device also.(yes, I know 128 gb is a lot. I have very wide musical taste, and I also have a few audiobooks on it. If I had a lot of audiobooks, I would be needing a terabyte...)
Hi, I'll list my opinions / whishes about what I would like to see in a rockboxable small player.MOST IMPORTANT are two things:Must have SD-card slot (but that seems like certainty..?)microSD is enough, of course full size SD is a fun idea, but I can't see that working in this small form factor. When it comes to capacity, I've used 128 gb cards in my all my sansa clip plus and zip's, so that is my need.

MEDIUM IMPORTANCEDurable hardware for the buttons - outer buttons need to be designed with limits for their movement.Sansa failed hard here. If one drops the sansa and it lands on it's volume button, the plastic outer button slams into the surface mounted microswitch so hard that it breaks loose completely from it's soldering. AFAIK the 'normal' (read: non-sansa) way of design is that the outer plastic button 'should' have a "movement limit" in its mounting, like a plastic ridge or something, which stops the outer button from being pushing too hard into the microswitch on the circuit board. As far as I can tell Sansa skipped this, and thus this has become one of the common breakages (google it). I have three devices with this damage. (yes I am a bit clumsy). I would gladly have a player that is 5 mm wider, taller and thicker, if it also was more durable. Aftermarket silicon sleeves protects a little, but not so much against this.Enough hardware buttonsThe sansa clip&zip have a good amount. Placement... of course it needs to be usable, but I would say that most placings will be workable in a small player.FM-radioI can live without it, after all I used ipods (rockboxed) for a few years. But it is a very good thing to have. I have even used it to record sound from small fm-microphones!(UNIMPORTANT, LOW PRIORITY)Clip: the function may be necessary, but it could be done with a sleeveI definitely need a clip, but I am certain it could be put on a silicon sleeve. Actually I would prefer that. The Sansa clip is pretty easily damaged if the device is dropped. The plastic is so very thin where the axle is fastened. If the clip functionality was in a silicon sleeve instead, it would be easier to replace if broken, and perhaps also would not break so often. Personally I feel certain I could DIY an ok clip on a silicon sleeve myself, as I have needed to fix broken Sansas....multi-color screenFor what, album art? On a screen that is 96x96 pixels...? hahahaha, no. Ok, opinions may differ, but I think it is silly. I do prefer the Zips screen over the Plus since it is larger, but color is the lowest priority I can imagine. And I remember the Plus duo-tone screen as better in sunlight than the Zip.
