work on best low cost mp3 player for rockbox
whatshisname:
I'd like to see a player along the line of the Sansa Clip Zip, Plus and the rest of that family.
Something small. Has a clip so you can clip and carry with you - around the house, out for a run, working in the yard or taking a solo trip by car.
Go for as high a res display as you can get. Like the Clip Zip.
As far as Rockbox users go, I think there is a decent market for types like me who are beginning to wake up to the fact that the Sansa clip players are gone as far as Rockbox is concerned.
That's at least one population of users that has already been identified yet there's nothing on the market right now that can make any of us happy.
We're all wishing you the best!

just a quick question: is this project still on schedule?
I am really looking forward to a new rockboxable Player, as all but one of my sansa clip zips have stopped working by now! I think it is really cool, that your company is doing its best to develop that player!
Greetings and good luck

Hi Leo,
if it's not too late and you're still on the track in developing a Rockbox player, may I suggest giving the option of line-in or external microphone recording? Players that support this are in short supply, outdated and usually quite expensive. Would it be possible to add that option?
Cheers!

Hi,
I will talk to our engineer to see what we can do about it.
Thanks for the advice.

We have come out the first model which doesn't have a clip on it. It's full metal casing, so it is too heavy to a clip. We also will launch an armband for it. The clip version would be the second model.
Thank you!
Leo

Automatic bookmarking. M4B audibook format support.
I got the agptek B03 and the manual bookmarking is loads better than the clip jam or sport, but its not as good rockbox which autobookmarks when you shut it down. I can live without both but they are really nice to have.
I figure the auto bookmarking is probably the more import,since I can manually convert m4b
