When hooked on to the PC , it detects wizpy as a bootable USB device from which the linux OS is loaded.Operations such as adding new Documents are possible only when booted onto this OS.This may appear cumbersome for some users who are not too friendly with foreign operating systems other than the trustworthy Windows, or for users who dont have the patience to exit from windows to the new OS just to change one or 2 mp3s or documents.As of now , Nothing has been said about the sound quality or Price of the player as its yet to be released globally.Im sure this is going to be something interesting to look forward to.
