      (A.K.A. what's your purpose for being here?)
 A16. Firstly, we wouldn't start something like this if we didn't simply enjoy
      it profusely. This is great fun!
-     Secondly, we feel the firmware is lacking some features and contain a
-     number of annoying bugs that we want to fix.
-     Some ideas would include (in no particular order):
-              - No pause between songs 
-              - Mid-song resume 
-              - Mid-playlist resume 
-              - No-scan playlists 
-              - Unlimited playlist size 
-              - Autobuild playlists (ie: "all songs in this directory tree") 
-              - Auto-continue play in the next directory 
-              - Current folder and all sub-folder random play 
-              - Full disk random play 
-              - REAL random
-              - Multi song queue
-       	      - Faster scroll speed
-              - More cool features with the wire remote control (including 
-                controlling your Archos from your car radio (req hw mod))
-              - Support playing of other files types (ie: Ogg Vorbis support)
-              - Support for megabass switch (req hw mod) 
-              - Player control via USB
-              - Memory expansion?
-     Note: Just because something is on this list, does not mean that it is
-     technically feasible. (But hey we can dream)  And something not
-     being on the list does not mean it isn't a neat idea.  Bring it to 
-     the list.
