Christopher, I can certainly understand why you are curious about why I 
am looking for a newer MP3 player than the Zen Stone.  Capacity isn't 
the issue.  II'm hoping that I can fine a player with longer battery 
life.  The Zen Stone advertises about ten hours between charges, I 
believe, but I usually get about eight hours when playing Audible.com files.
