Well, I still think the memory upgrade is a good thing. It is great if you use third party applications, or if you use the HTML interface a lot. I have a bunch of people at the office streaming from my player at the same time, and they do not seem to be stepping on each other. It is also great for big fsck runs...

But, yes, the player application itself does not make good use of the memory yet. At least not the 2.0x class players. I have not tried the alphas yet.

I know what you mean about the LEDs - I have one I need to get fixed as well. The more modifications, certainly the more things can (and usually do) go wrong. But I still think that it is worth it.

And, yes, that button hack is still extremely impressive!!!
