If you don't like the Dell DJ, that's fine, but please don't arbitrarily give one star to our *book* about the device. It's really quite good. :)

How about some reviews about the book? The reviews here have nothing to do with this product. Go over to the Dell forums and complain if you want. This section is for a BOOK.
