Lots in Brighton. All unpriced and the staff told me it was £49.99. I guess that's why they have so many left! Anyway I asked them to check it on the till and it came up £24.99 so I bought one and I'm very glad I did.

Was that Somerfield on London Road?? Very tempted.

Yes it was. They are at the tobacco counter just as you walk in.

Just noticed that the MP3 spec requires players to be able to play files encoded at up to 320kbps but on the side of the box for the MD81018 player it says it can handle bitrates from 32kbps - 256kbps VBR. I have encoded tracks using the latest beta lame.exe encoder at 320kbps and they seem to play OK but I'm concerned that the quality may be reduced if I don't limit the bitrate to 256kbps. Anyone else tried 320kbps? Did they play OK? Comments anyone?
