I had an iRiver MP3 player, too. One with an internal hard drive. Absolutely loved it and even bought a second one when I lost the first one one winter. Unfortunately the battery wasn't replaceable and by that time iRiver had dropped the hard drive line, forcing me, ugh!, to get an iPod Classic instead as the only alternative with enough capacity for my music collection. I love my PE, too, and would buy another one if I ever lost this one.
