RMA'ed and sent out on 2/19.  It will finally be sent out this week (I hope!).

What a cluster F***.  I bought a Cowon D2 in the mean time, and I really like it.

I will let you know the differences when (and if) I get it.  I hope it was worth the wait.

Got my fingers crossed for you.
Sean Michael Taylor #21 (1983-2007). Thank you for giving it everything you had. Rest In Peace.

Got it today, and wouldn't you know, the screen was loose!  Yep, 1/2 way on.  I pressed it back on and I hope it does not fall off again.

Flash Memory! nope.  Still has a hard drive.

Only major difference is the scroll wheel seems to operate smoother.

I really hope it sounds good.  Trekstor has a great chipset, but so so quality (IMHO).

Comes loaded with firmware version 1.04!  Some things never change.

I will let you all know what happens next.  If the screen falls off or the unit blows up! :)

Had to make an edit. 

This video shows the same problem my Vibez is suffering from.

The guy in video is blaming Amazon for trekstor's issues.

I wanted to add that the wheel is slightly smaller on this unit.  It actually feels really loose and spins fine with one finger.  At lease there is one improvement.

AFAIK 1.04 is the latest released version.

Mh, TrekSTor seems to have some major QA problems with some production charges of the Vibez... :-/

I'm lucky my Vibez never showed any symptoms like that...

Good luck with your screen, I hope it stays fixed and the player works as it should.

Best of luck with your replacement, rxxdoc...Shame about the lack of a flash drive. Can you post some pics of the slightly smaller wheel?

Well he mainly blames Amazon for not sending him a second replacement and for sending out a player with strange markings that he suspects quite reasonably to be some kind of designate-as-defective marks.
