Always a good idea to verify any claims with someone besides the manufacturer.

The job of the advertising department is to sell the product. They get bonuses on how well they do their job. As a result they will do as much as they think they can get away with, because it's a bigger bonus.

I do think that they are going to far.

I like my JBL, but I also take nothing Ectaco says at face value. For example; whatever tradeoffs made in the mini, are made for a purpose. That's just business. Their advertising has left me a sour taste in my mouth. Both the calibre conversion, and the inability to handle pictures (Now it can display .gif), are reasons why I don't trust their advertising.

This chart seems to be more of the same.
