RE: Anybody received a Pono player yet?

I think you and I had this conversation last March, but in any event, the Pono player has three features that i-devices don't and that greatly appeal to me:

1. It's not part of the i-Tunes universe, so I can load my already-ripped FLAC files onto it. I personally don't care for i-Tunes.

2. It uses removable micro-SD cards, so it has functionally limitless capacity and I can swap cards in and out without going through some unpleasant syncing process.

3. It's designed by Charles Hansen.

Obviously, the Pono player isn't for everyone, but I think it has a place in the portable music world.

Happy listening,

Jim
