Llorean:
Such as, perhaps, the description that says it "has problems that limit it to advanced users"?

:D
Yes, I thought someone would mention that. I was thinking of a more specific warning somewhere, to keep people from assuming the player had somehow bricked itself when this happened.

And it would be even better if someone could come up with a way of resetting the player in this situation, where the method described in the FAQ fails to work.

If we listed all the ways an incomplete port could go wrong, we'd be updating that list hourly, forever. That's just daft. If the generic warning we give doesn't scare you away, then you only have yourself to blame!

However, if you feel you want to keep such a list updated for the FuzeV2 - this *is* a community project. Dive into the wiki and do it yourself.

Would what be even nicer is if the port were finished, and this didn't happen.

Shiftlock:
I regularly use a V1 Fuze for a couple of hours per day, but the past few days I've switched over to using the latest build on one of my V2 Fuzes, and it hasn't crashed on me yet.  Mainly listening to MP3 podcasts, but I also watched a couple of 30-minute video files, and spent a few minutes messing around with the FM radio.  I'm sure there are things behind the scenes that still need to be done, but for me so far, from a user's perspective, it has worked as well as my Fuze V1.  Identical, in fact (knock on wood).

Shiftlock:
Still no problems with Rockbox on my V2 Fuze.  No crashes with daily use.  I'm now convinced that Rockbox on my V2 Fuze is just as good as it is on my V1 Fuze.  The people who have been working on the V2 Fuze have done an absolutely wonderful job.  In just a couple of months it's gone from useless to seemingly perfect from a casual user's perspective (even though there's probably still work to be done).  Thanks!
