RockboxPlayerV1 - Free/Open hardware audio player for Rockbox
Davide-NYC:
I essentially agree with everything mborus said. I think the basic idea (from a recording enthusiast perspective only) is that the H1x0 series is almost perfect.
To summarize: Starting from the iRiver H1x0 as a basic platform the only things a recording enthusiast would definitely need *in addition to what is already in an H1x0* are the following:
- Real Time Clock (probably a given)
- better that 20bit/48kHz digital input support (putting it in the professional category)
- SSD or CF or equivalent... (no moving parts/no interference)
Am I right folks? ;D

Please read the objectives of RockboxPlayer - Good quality hardware audio player and recorder - no video player or game console;
If you want a portable video player, you have a lot of options in market, but I believe you will not find both things, with good quality.
I am being archiving suggestions on:

And who defined those objectives? Surely that too is personal preference?

I did. I started writing the idea of this project on wiki and that objectives reflects my believes.

Personally, if I were going to make a device dedicated to running Rockbox, I'd be making a device which exercised all of Rockbox's capabilities - which would mean including a colour screen.
Just my 2 pennies worth though - I accept I'm not working on developing this device, and ultimately the decisions will be made by those who are.
