Well, I would say that the coloured ones are pretty good already. Good work Rockbox.... :D

Reading the description of these players on your website, I was excited to see that they use 2.5" hard drives, as opposed to the smaller capacity 1.8" drives in all the other "software codec" devices that Rockbox runs on. (The Archos devices supported by Rockbox use 2.5" drives, but they are limited to only playing MP3 and, in the near future, WAV - the CPU isn't fast enough to support other codecs).
The ability to have 120GB of FLAC files in a Rockboxed player is very tempting (and would be unique to this player) - so count me in as an interested developer if this port ever goes anywhere.

No problem. You might want to sent me a e-mail (look under my profile) so I can sent you files you need to work on the player.
At the moment, I don't have the source code of orginial firmware yet. But I have the software to load orginial firmware into the A8 player on my hand and player firmware is on my site.
