After reading this i immedaitly picked up my hand set and listened to some high bitrate music and browsed google and a couple of forums - im on the latest firmware and can confirm not a single skip or jump

As for iplay - i too am disapointed in this

On a sid enote: i half expected the top reason to be 'because it dones come in pink' lol (thats why my misus said about it)

Thanks
