Hi!! I am wanting to know when you received your answer to your question about whether you can use these for storing and viewing pictures if it worked for you? I too, wish to use these to transfer all pics to each one and want to make sure I will be able til do that with no problems. So, my main question. Is: once I have saved my pics to this device, will my family be able to copy the pics I put on there to tbeir computers.. I a m hoping that you purchased these, and if the party who answered your question right. I really hate to spend the money if they on my burn music, you know? Thank you in advance. Steph Hi!!

The Pico is capable of wds however I don't know how well it plays with unifi. From what I've heard, unifi uses some kind of proprietary protocols which the Pico doesn't have. Perhaps someone else can weigh in on this.

I don't know, it plays mp4 tho.P.S I suggest you take some time to see how'' smooth '' this device is.Mine is easy to crash and No respond few in a month.Compare to Cowon S9, S9 is faster and have better audio in my perspective.

thank you so much i have taken all the negative aspects into consideration and as soon as i get enough money i am going to get the 250gb archos 5. even though it has all these glitches with the beta i still think it is the best thing for me because the zune and ipod are just not enough. one more thing do you or anyone else for that matter know if the archos 5 is going to be compatible with the 3.5g connection add on or is it only the archos 5g? if someone can give any info regarding this topic it is most deeply appreciated.

Mine doesn't work with anything. The usb port failed after a month of use. Cowon said it was my fault - apparently I haven't mastered plugging electronics in properly yet. The build quality and service make it impossible to recommend Cowon. I capitulated to Apple and bought a Nano. Better built quality balances out small sacrifice in sound quality and file type limitations.

Thank you for posting, of course. But I don't put a whole lot of stock in that transcript. Since the PS3 has Netflix Streaming using the BD-Live technology provided also on the S560, I tried using the PS3 Instant Streaming disc. It *almost* worked. Apparently, the S560 does not have a date/time setting, which is required by the Netflix DRM algorithm. After much testing, I believe that is the only stumbling block to getting Netflix Streaming to work on the S560.So, yes, the S560 as is does not support Netflix Streaming, but those of you who think it can't, may not realize how easy it would be to make it so.

When you say can this work.... In what terms do you mean? What exactly do you want to do with it? If you want to view pictures or movies then yes it will work. There are many things that you can do with the s3 jump drive. It is an amazing tool to have/use.

It will work as a USB device and you will be able to view the file system of the Cowon but some features won't work because the device was built around the Windows platform. The one feature that appears to not work is the "safely remove". You will need to eject the device from within Linux then go to the player and "turn off USB" at the screen.If you are going to use Linux I would go with one of the more popular distros such as Mint or Ubuntu. There's a much better chance of finding better device support than a distro where you have to install various packages to you OS build liking.

Thanks for the helpful comments. Does this mean that I could connect a Mac mini Apple Mac mini MC239LL/A Desktop to my network, and use it as a server to make my music accessible to a Squeezebox, and maybe for back-ups, too? Would I need to run the server version of Mac OS X on it, or would the regular OS work for these purposes?Thanks.

Thanks, Alex. This is very helpful. I'm feeling like this might work for me, and even if it doesn't, I'll still have an awesome mp3 player.-Rick

Hi. FYI, unless I'm missing a setting, this doesn't do Playon and Plexus like my older Sony Blu-Ray player. Thought I'd mention that since those are typically offered with smart devices. But it does do Amazon, YouTube, Hulu Plus (but not the free Hulu, which is why I use the Playon), and music services too like Slacker. Also, I prefer wired streaming since it tends to be more reliable than wifi.

I downloaded it just because of habit. Then I just rolled back. The download wasn't necessary for me for what I wanted to do. It says it had a few minor bugs to fix like shuffling over a folder boundry or something, but I don't use that feature anyway. I believe that the firmware it ships with allows you to play audible. I have listened to a few audible books so I know it works. I have firmware 2.51.

PlayOn works great, and it's not so much the cost, but I'm not sure about the fact that I have to this other computer up and running all the time, and what if it's not running, or crashed, or someone is doing something on it that's taking up a lot of CPU, how will the PlayOn software handle that? I'm just saying that, you have an network capable box that really should be able to talk to the netflix server directly, like Roku does, or Boxee Box, etc., but it doesn't. So it has to hop through another PC.

Works well with Synology NAS. They have downloadable app for Squeezecenter, I have DS 209 and works good, although my duet is mainly used for Pandora and Rhapsody i will admit, not so much mp3's on NAS, but it does work. And your PC or laptop doesn't need to be on.

Should be ,I think incompatibility only occurs when you have a newer player designed to also download compressed files from your computer with hundreds?of songs, in that case you may need a higher grade md.These should be good with all older players downloading in real time.Ask Sony they would have definitive info.
