Following on from my previous posting (thanks to all who contributed 
to that) I have been loaned an MP3 player to see if it works OK or 
not, in theory it sounds perfect, it is a Sony NWD-B103 1GB capacity 
MP3 Player, it has no windows software with it or anything fancy, just 
appears to be pretty much the same as my Packard Bell audio key.

I looked on the internet for information about this player and it says 
requires no software and works by simply dragging and dropping files ! 
sounds good I thought so i've just plugged it in to the Iyonix, 
waiting and hoping, the Iconbar icon popped up for the device, yes it 
works I thought , then I double clicked on the icon and was presented 
with the following message -

"Bad block size - must be 256/512/1024"

In other words it doesn't work, but can it be made to work ? I seem to 
recall something about formatting a drive like this to make it work on 
RISC OS, did I imagine that ? or is it simply not going to work? i'm 
suprised it didn't as I thought it would , is the capacity too big ?

cheers
Matthew
