Pitch bug on Clip+?

I just got the Clip+ at BB today. I’m with you guys about the slow playback on the original clip. I barely used it after listening to my music sounding a bit off all the time. I took the risk in getting the Clip+ to perhaps help others decide. So I can tell you after testing simultaneous playback with my computer and Cowon S9 vs the Clip+ on several songs, the slow playback is gone. However, it is now about 1/4 sec fast per minute, so about a second fast per 4+ minute song. This is not discernable to me without having the music playing simultaneously. Hope this helps.

Which then makes one wonder why SanDisk doesn’t make the same firmware tweak for the Clip to fix the problem.  They share the same sound chip, right?  Unless the firmware is significantly different, which is hard to believe, though possible I guess.

Or maybe there’s a Clip firmware release right around the corner …
