I seem to recall having that symptom happen once--and only once--on my unit
and it's never reoccurred. Like Jacques, I think I pressed some random
combination of buttons and it just took off. It was a long time ago, so I
don't have anything but the foggiest memory of exactly how it took place or
what I did to stop it, but I think I remember that I had to remove the
batteries.

It sounds like a part failure, however, if it is working, you may want
to wait to send it in. It's really up to you. Usually, by the time I see
that behavior, it is constant, not intermittent like it is with yours
now.

Hi all.
I was listening to an MP3 file yesterday; I pressed forward or backward
or
louder or softer, or something like that, while the file was playing,
and
the next moment the file started playing at about 10 times the normal
speed.
It really sounds like turbo chipmunk mode.
There after all my audio files sounded the same, even normal music
MP3's.
I reset the BP a few times. No change.
I then copied all my files off on to the PC, formatted the CF card,
upgraded
to 2.2, and copied all my files back.
Tried my audio file again. It played for about 3 seconds fine, and then
it
sped up again and there was also an incredible amount of static and
noise.
Then all the files did that.
Now, after about 1 hour of leaving it, I tried again, and now all my
audio
files work just fine.
This was a very strange experience and a bit worrying.
Anybody have any comments on this?
Thanks.
Jacques
