Hi, well when I got the "Full-up" message, I put on a poetry CD and it just
kept loading the thing, when I finally stopped it and listened I had half
the CD on so I think it was a good way of filling it up. Maybe if you
finish it off with some music, you too will find when it cuts-off with that
"No Space" message, you'll have at least some of your music CD on it, saves
having so much empty space then. Christine.
