...and wanted to congratulate the Empeg team once again on a wonderful product (now that I have a remote again, I can access the rest of the wonderful new features in 2.0 that I couldn't before). I'm looking forward to a final release of the 2.0 software.

Quick question. On the Mk2a units, is the serial number this 9... number I see on the box (I'm used to numbers that start with 9) or is it the 3... number I see on the player?

In other news, I got a shipment confirmation today of my spare Rio remote control that I ordered a week before I ordered the player.

Thanks (from all of us!) :)

The serial number is MMYYNNNNN - where MM/YY are month and year. 0900 players were made (well, the main PCBs were made anyway) in september 2000.

The serial number is shown when you select "About" from the main menu.

Yup, also receive my spare this week. I also want to thank the makers of this great piece of hard- and software that has changed the way I listen to music forever.
A real shame SonicBlue didn't see it that way, but this point has been beaten to death so I won't make any further comments on it.

Also, a small question : I haven't tried this yet (the second unit is still in the box), but is it possible to use ONE version of Empload with both the units? I'm asking this because I had to fill in the serial# in a field when I installed Empload, and I'm just wondering if Empload checks this number each time a player gets hooked up to it.

If it did that we'd never get anything done round here...
