Still remember the news about Sandisk not doing too well in the financial department a few months ago? If we’re unlucky the programming folks have been laid off… (Which obviously would ■■■■. Waiting for Godot, anyone?) Well, let’s hope that’s not the case, but in times like these you never know.
I’m sure layoffs effect every department. Budget cuts. And im sure other projects are higher priority. The mp3 market is saturated, and pricing pressures. The clip is mature and maybe at the end of is life cycle… But I still LOVE my little Sansa Clip mp3 player. How sad to think that maybe, i won’t get to update firmware to play with new features. >.<; lawl. I’d guess that firmware updates for the Clip are not on the Software Engineers priority list that they have been tasked with.
Really the CLIP is very stable, feature rich, and any minor complaints probably have work arounds, except for maybe the pitch issue.
- wonders if there will be an update, so i know if i should keep returning to the forum… -
