  1. Folks, anyone have one of these know if it can play tracks randomly? I've only just got it and am
    finding it will only play the same track order and there is no repeat modes etc.?

    PS. Sorry for the post to the running group but I know these are used by runners as they are a
    'sport' type MP3 player

    It repeats to the start automatically.

    It doesn't do random. Its a minimalist player, designed to be used "blind" on your arm. I've never
    used random on anything ever - CD player, MP3 player, hadheld, winamp, minidisc, you name it, so I
    don't find it a problem. It's a superb wee player, which will be made better when we get a firmware
    u/g to ogg files, for now I use 64K WMA.

    I have the Nike psa128. Can't play tracks randomly. Mine broke recently so I got the Rio Cali, upped
    the memory to 384 ram, loaded tons of music, and now the random play mode on the Cali is really
    nice. So much music to enjoy that it's nice to hear it pop up randomly rather than only in
    predictable order. And nice to enjoy FM radio on occasion as well.

  4. While we're on the topic, how the hell do you comfortably wear the headphones without them falling
    out when turning your head? The only solution I came up with is hang the arched part of the
    headphones over the knot in a bandana. Otherwise they come off so I can watch for traffic.

    I junked mine as soon as buying - not that they're terrible, but I never use supplied 'phones when
    you can buy luxurious sounding earphones for £30.

    Same here. I usually dump the included headphones. The Nike psa headphones and the Rio Cali
    headphones both sucked, not from an audio quality point of view, just from a comfort point of view.
    I still use my old reliable Sony earbud yellow sport headphones. No need to ever switch. -- Josh
