Book Port has always reversed the channels of stereo MP3 files. This is =
not a problem with the beta firmware; this is a hardware problem. The best =
thing to do if this bothers you is to use a set of headphones (or ear =
buds) that is reversable. That way, you can get proper channel orientation =
by wearing the headphones backwards.
