Obviously the announcement had to wait a short bit. I should have an update very soon.
On the code end of things the quality of the mp3 decoder we used was a little lacking. We completely ripped the old one out and installed a new decoder. The first thing I noticed was the fidelity went way up. The old one sounded good but by comparison the new one is a whole lot better. It takes less cpu time, but that didn't really matter anyway. It hasn't crashed even though we threw some horribly encoded songs at it. I never knew there could be such a difference in mp3 decoders and encoders but I do now.
I will update everyone as soon as I can. Stay tuned.
