I recieved my N505 today after ordering on the 12th. That's amazingly quick! I think the uBid Superstore may even have newegg beat in terms of shipping speed. I'm impressed.
Now, for the unit. After reading all the complaints with the OpenMG software, I decided to use RealOne [ugh :disgust: ] to handle file transfer. So far everything works like a dream. I'm using LP2 and the sound quality is pretty good. I'll try LP4 sometime, but I'm not expecting much from it. The Simple Burner software included seems to work well. The headphones included suck, of course, so I am using some quality headphones I just so happened to have lying around . I'm glad they included a minidisc with the unit, as I have not purchased any minidiscs yet (I wasn't expecting to recieve it until sometime next week). Before purchasing this unit I was seriously considering a Creative Zen, but I'm glad I held off. I am very happy with the N505 and $80 is much nicer than the $300 I would have had to shell out for the Zen.
So, a thanks goes out to yellowperil for the posting the deal.
