As it happens, yes. Yes I do

And it is absolutely brilliant! Bearing in mind that it's 3 (? 4?) years old now (I bought it new), I have never had any trouble with it whatsoever,

Good points;
Simple to use
The battery life is fantastic
The sound quality is very very good (Buy some Sony EX71 headphones, they make all the difference)
Has a line out function which means I can run it into my car stereo using a 3.5mm jack

Fiddly bits;
Comes with an EU-sanctioned volume limiter which you can turn off if you know how and where to go in the firmware.
The menu system can take a bit of getting used to
No flash bollocks; it plays music, end of.
To connect it to your PC, you need a fiddly little adaptor and you must be charging it at the same time.
Some people moan about the PC software, but I have never had any trouble with it at all, and find it extremely simple to operate.

I think they are so good, in fact, that I've often been tempted to buy a second one just in case my current one ever falls off its perch. My Ms. has had I-Rivers and Ipods (What an abortion those were) in the same time span and has often wished that she'd bought one of these.

In short, I can't recommend them enough.
