i just installed starling - what a great audio player. thank you, graham cobb! i'm sooo glad i finally found this app. after spending countless hours with all the other mediaplayers, this is the best n810 audioplayer for me. fast start up, small footprint, loads 1000 mp3s without problem, n810 buttons work for pause and next track, shuffle mode actually works, easy track delete function. you adjust the volume with the tablet volume. - i would vote for it in maemo.org, but have given up on the idiotic log in procedures.
update: well, that honeymoon lasted about 2 weeks. then starling stopped loading my mp3 tracks. i uninstalled and tried different versions without success. that makes it about as useful as the nokia musicplayer. it's back to kagu for me for now.
