Yes, would like it changed, or have some way of determining the rejected
files.
However, the odd thing is that when you re-send a file that's been
auto-deleted from the queue, say due to card full situation, you get an
overwrite prompt. Why is this, if indeed the files were deleted from the
queue?

It appears that your machine is not contrary. Unique perhaps, but not =
contrary!
Seriously, we delete all queued files when there is an error during the =
send process. The primary reason is because it is possible to queue files =
which will never go to the device. Perhaps for example, a user has a 128 =
MB card, and they queue a 140 MB MP3 file. If we didn't delete all queued =
files, they would be asked every time they connect, only to get an error. =
Of course, they could use Brows or Delete if they wanted to in this =
situation.
I realize that this is a somewhat liberal solution to a problem that some =
may never have, but it avoids stressing beginners or casual users if it =
should occur. So, I ask of all of you, should an error during sending =
queued files clear the queue? I can easily change this for the next =
release if most people want it changed.

OK, Has this happened to anyone else?
I had cued several files from web pages. Unfortunately, I forgot my card =
was full. When I tried to send the files, I was reminded of this fact. I =
deleted a bunch of stuff, expecting to be able to send the files then. =
But,=20
Unfortunately, the cue was then empty! The files were gone!
This wouldn't be such a big deal if they hadn't been web pages.
Is this a pattern, or is this unique to my own little contrary machine? =
