[AccessD] OT: Slacker radio

jr.com has the first generation Slacker mp3 player on sale for a hundred bucks.  It's obviously a 
clearance because of the new G2 player, however it seems to have all the functionality of the G2 
with a clunkier physical interface.  I was wondering if anyone has the first generation and could 
comment as to whether it would be a good buy for $100.

Also whether the first gen would continue to get software updates.
