Sounds like a lot of fixes in anticipation of the nav dock coming out soon. I wonder if this is why Jetmall delayed their shipments.

To anyone who has upped to 1.43.

Is it my imagination or... does the touch screen work way better with 1.43???

It worked fine in the cowon menu, but it windows itself it was really problematic.
Is that better now???

I don't own one yet, but I know it doesn't support it.

will it ever support gapless playback? how is this small change not taking place at cowon? it is so small but makes so much of a difference... put in pink floyd or any live album you own... think about it

It may seem "small" to you, but it does take quite a bit of development time to implement.
