It has been a long time.

It's sad to read these forums, it feels like a ghost town. However, I still use my Samsung P2 as my primary mp3 player, but I have turned to the dark side within the last year. I bought an iPad in June, and it does everything well- except for music. That is why I will always avoid at all means to buy an iPod. On the bright side, I've had my P2 since 2007 and it still plays music like a charm.

It is a bit sad isn't it? I remember back in 08 when this forum was filled with active users and new interesting information. Spent countless days and night on this forum.

I've always tried to keep the subforums alive and I'm always here to talk about any Samsung DAP I own, that means about almost any player but heh if nobody is willing to talk about them with me...

Hey!
Yes its been YEARS! I still use my P2 as well, brilliant that it has lasted so long. But honestly compared to anything else, the touch-screen isn't that great :P. Its fine but I would prefer some other way to navigate through music. Samsung just put the touch screen for name sake.

But I still love my P2 for its awesome battery life, sound quality, resistant to abuse & the fact its still alive

I still remember those days when all of us were mental about bluewave updates xD

Same here. I still use my P2 since all those years and even though Samsung did not innovate much with their touch screen, I am still OK with the product.

But I learned a lesson form that product: I don't ever buy a product which I cannot root, anymore. I did it for my Nook Touch (rooted to Honeycomb) as well as for my cell phone that I got last summer (not rooted yet, but coming soon).

It feels very bad to be stuck with a closed source product for which you are dependent on updates and so, good will of a single company. Open source (even one backed by Google) allows for more user's created innovations.

Still, I don't regret buying a P2. Like death__machine is saying, it stays a good Mp3 player.

Still use my P2 quite a bit. I have a Galaxy S3 with Pandora/Spotify/etc, but the P2 is what comes with me when I run. And before I got my S3, I took a trip to Texas, the P2 came along with me. Synced it to the bluetooth in the rental, and had full play/pause/back/forward control with the d-pad on the steering wheel. Chewed through the battery pretty quick, but that's what the 12v outlet is for. Great sound quality even over BT.
