all things considered, this device isn't so bad. tho i would love to see it have the power to rip/encode onboard.. maybe the Empeg2 will have that ability. there is certinly enough disk space to easily store the entire CDDB database (last i checked, it was less than 20MB) so tracks could be titled automaticaly.. just using something like lame, and some simple tools.
