   At the time Android didn't exist.

   A fiend of mine, who happens to be a professional Engineer was using other   
   brands of phones for a number of years, He said that when I purchased and   
   Apple iPhone (I think it was 4th gen) everything works better and smoother   
   that it had on other brands.   
   I'm not a apple supporter, but I thought I should pass on the feedback.  I   
   have an old iPod with a 80 Byte hard drive and I have found it to be   
   severalty limited in what video formats it will play.  I would not buy   
   another Apple product   
      
      
   I have a big question about the Pono and its software!   
      
   Can you transfer high resolution songs from an SACD, DVD-Audio disks in high   
   resolution, or   
   HDCD in its 20 bit format and related formats (K2HD ...).  I have also heard   
   that Blu-ray has some disks with high rez sound on them too, but I not   
   positive on this.  I'm guessing that there would be some licensing issues   
   especially with Sony!   
   If you can't transfer from these formats, you would be locked into buying   
   every High rez song that you would want to listen too.  If this is the case,   
   I would not buy a PONO!!
