This thing is amazing! I barely used my phone at all in the morning and all through the afternoon as I went about my business. I got sucked in for the evening onwards, but baby steps.

… I’ll need to download more music, and get a bigger SD card. I’ve already played and replayed every single one of them I had loaded onto my Echo Mini these past 2 days.

    I’ve been looking at this kind of thing a lot lately and it really only makes me want to get an older iPod and shove a terabyte and a new battery into it

        Rockbox has been around for ages, I was using it back in like 2010. Great little firmware

          That was great! I still have an mp3 player floating around somewhere with rockbox on it. It really revolutionized mp3 players for me because the included software/apps to transfer music to them were usually such trash. I had a Microsoft mp3 player, a Zune. What a pain in the ass trying to put music on that thing.

      Bluetooth on something like this seems nice though… With one of these and a UE BOOM speaker or something, and you can blast your entire music library anywhere. Or even just BT headphones.

      Damn, I kind of want one now.
