Title: Two Units Both Skip Even After Firmware Upgrade
Product review: I really like the design of this player. Unfortunately both of the units I bought for my sons for Christmas skip during the song playback. At first I though it might be that the MP3s were encoded in variable bit rate format. I converted them to 128 bps and tried again. Both untis still skip. I then tried to download the latest firmware 1.12.04 [per another review here, thanks!]and format the drives. Even after all that both units still skip during song playback. I've contacted Creative support and I'm hoping for a fix soon!! I have two very dissapointed kids with what now appear to be $120 lumps of coal.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
