Well that's all I want. Some way to get the new
features short of paying full price for a new player.
Ideally they'd take the old one but I can certainly
accept the compromise.

You're right about most of my complaints...but if I
bought electronics from Sony and wanted an upgrade
for the new model I'd be fucked. But they sold something
with a faulty ground and a basically non-functioning
radio you know they'd replace it with the corrected
model.

I hope I can get a discount on a Mark 2 and still sell my
Mark 1 for something.

In the meantime all need to do is get emplode to talk to
my player. The player seems happy enough but I do
suspect that the database is corrupted. What's the
easiest way to kill the database? I was hoping that
8d might correct things but starting from scratch may
be quicker.
