I would like to say I endorce Laz's company as a provider of RB enabled
players.
I had a few small snags on a recent purchase but having spoken to a wide
range of previous customers I am satisfied that this company offers a very
high standard of service.
Somewhere to consider for folks who aren't able to install/config Rockbox on
a player or who would simply rather someone else does the work for them.
Cheers,
Barry.
