Any Mobiblu DAH-1500i owners out there?

[Artheas]

I've just received one of these a few hours ago, bought it mainly for its size, but i have a few questions, the answers to which i can't find on the net >.<

In the manual, it says exceeding the recharging time may cause a fire... now i've only had 1 other mp3 player (ibead 150, awesome mp3 player) and i dont remember it saying the same in it's manual. Is this just something they write so that theyre not liable if your house burns down? Because i think i'm likely to leave the player plugged into the USB port after the machine has been switched off, and my mobo still supplies power to usb in power down state. Is this something to avoid?

Also, again in the manual it says recharge the product using usb cable when LCD screen is not activated. But when i plug in the cable, the LED screen activates, and nothing i press can do anything. So the screen stays on until i remove the device from the usb port.

And finally... if anyone has a black one.. how do you avoid getting prints all over the player? Or have you just stopping caring about them? -.-

Thanks

i cant answer anyhting but the black question, to which i say yeah - black players are a nightmare but you just have to resist the urge to clean it ever 20 milliseconds. i have that problem with my black iStation i2. fingure prints everywhere on the blasted thing

i cant imagine leaving it plugged in will cause any problems. In this day and age it should really have all the safety features built in, like shutting of the charging circuit when its fully charged for example.

To charge with the screen off, make sure the hold switch isn't on.

Hold off for Charge > hold on for USB connection.

It still charges with hold on, only difference is you can edit the stuff through the cable.

I'd imagine that the whole "don't over charge" thing's just a disclaimer. with a 150 hour battery, you'll probably not need to charge it that often anyway.

I also find the finger prints annoying, but i'm not putting that tacky case that came with it on

wouldn't be suprised if another company will end up making a case for it in the near future.

Also, ditch the headphones that come with it, they're pretty poor, although the player itself is Very nice

ive tried all buttons, all one press, and hold downs, but nothing happens

I plug the USB cable in when the player is off, should i do it when it's on instead?

I find the case to be alright, a clear protective cover over the display would be great though.

I havent even touched the headphones that came with them.. i will be using some Sony ones i bought a few years back, or i might get some new ones...

the hold switch is the the switch between charging / being found on the system.

with hold on, it connects as a removable drive (seen in My computer etc.)

with the hold switch off, it will be turned on, but the screen should go blank after a few seconds.

Sorry, i still can't get it to work.. i feel stupid lol.

It says Ready when pluuged in, with a PC on the bottom left, the charging battery top right, HS below that, and USB below that. No matter what i press, all those things are there, until i remove the cable.

I guess theres no big advantage to having the LED off when charging is there, other than slightly faster charging times.
