goodspeech i'm glad you kept it also. it really is a dynamite device, there's so many things you can do with it. Dr. T, thank you so much for the kind words & support that you & others are so willing to give. i've been on quite a few forums but i must say this is one of the nicest & well managed ones. now to figure out how to get my music that i purchased from entourage onto my computer. i'm sure this is going to be a challange for me, but i'll give it a try. thanks again!!
