Okay but seriously, the person in the promotional video, unless there's medical condition behind it, should really do something about their posture.

Zune and iPod at Tangara.

Walkman, when the Napster fell!

Steve Jobs, his turtle neck raised high.

I bought one. Unfortunately, it still doesn’t work well with large music libraries. The database building step takes several hours, with no progress indicator, and once it’s done, the scroll wheel does not accelerate, meaning that scrolling through a long list of artists/albums will take a long time. Hopefully these will be remedied in a future firmware.

I highly doubt this thing is analog in any way.
