Got this little guy yesterday and am pretty happy with it. Miss that audio quality of a great FLAC player! A few weird things I noticed is that the radio only seems to pick up stations with the headphones plugged in, when I unplug them to hear through the little speaker its only static and picks up nothing.

Also noticed the touch screen is a little picky on how you 'caress' it to do what you want. Other than that, its size and functionality is perfect especially for the gym.

it uses the headphones lead as an aerial. you wont have much luck picking up radio channels without it.

The C2 uses resistive touchscreen which makes it harder to navigate the already difficult UI. It's not like today's touchscreen smartphones that uses capacitive touchscreens that is more fluid and sensitive. It's best to have fingernails for the C2.

nsviper,

As other options to fingernails, I use the stylus that came with my D2, others have used a guitar pick. After all, it is really an newer D2.

I have found that a slight longer more firm press does well with my finger. Its definately not over sensitive but once I'm used to it I'm sure it will be fine. I love the size of this thing.
