Hi all! Well today I got an iRiver iFP-899 and installed the music manager software and downloaded the most recent firmware for the 800 series, at least that's what it says. So I let the upgrade process complete, and the player powered off. This upgrade is supposed to let the player

Yup, from what I can tell you can rip your book as an audio cd that plays in a standard player, but you aren't able to save them as an mp3 file and burn them to a cd or a dvd. Good ole digital rights management at work again. At 10:17 AM 8/10/2005, you wrote: You can't do what you want. You
