I would say that you have three possible options: Buy another Avant from B&O or Ebay. However, if you do this, you could have the same problem in a few years or less and thus over time - lets say you spend £500 on a preowned Avant you wiould have had enough money to buy a relatively OK LCD/Plasma. Get your Avant repaired - if you do this you

No inclination to Microsoft products. When B&O products don't work they don't work with style. They are almost like capricious Gods or recalcitrant children. It is almost your fault that you cannot get them to work - you are not worthy. However, when MS products don't work it is infuriating. There is no explanation, they are just pants

I guess she means and I follow her argument to some extent that Ipods are or were pricey for the sake of it. So are B&O but they have always been and are/were more innovative than most other products. It would appear from the responses in this thread that in this case like with the B&O mobiles (in my opinion) that the MP3s are not really that

With the Beosound 2, can one simply drag and drop audio files onto the card and then shove the card into the player or does there need to be some B&O software intervention? I have seen those silly arm band things with Ipods attached but I was refering to students (I was one until last year) who sit in coffee shops with a macbook pretending to do

I have only really had secondary experience of using Ipods namely uploading music to the original Ipod shuffle (the USB stick one) and to the original Ipod Nano. I personally really did not like the interface, I must be a complete monkey but I cannot get to grips with that wheel device. Perhaps it takes longer than the five mins I spent on the device

Yes I was a bit concerned about the interface on the Beosound 2 - is it just overly simplistic and thus unhelpful/difficult to use or just boring for such an expensive item when new? I mean if she gets one off of Ebay for sub £100 then I guess it won't matter

Hi: My friend is in the market for an MP3 player. She really likes my Avant and I am thus converting her to B&O slowly. She dislikes Apple's Ipod. Her reasons being that they are over priced and without hacking proprietry software and file formats have to be used to access them (I know nmothing of MP3s as I am still quite happy with my CDs so

Hi: This issue appears to be closed now. However, last year I had a sideline of selling pre-used top-end mobile phones such as Motorola A1000 and other PDAs. My main cutomers were in Eastern Europe or other dare I say "developing" countries. As a result I recieved a lot of attention from dodgy scammers that eminated from Nigeria. On each ocasion

There is a 9500 on Ebay which has a fault in as much as the CD/tape doors will not open when the touch panels are pressed. Is this an easy repair as I would like to buy this for a modest fee and store it until I get round to reparing it in the near future, either by myself or taking it to B&O to get it fixed. Any rough ideas of what might be wrong

I know but the whole problem is that the Avant/Beovision 3 is too big. Although I have noticed they are cheap and will probably buy one for the sake of it. However, definitely need a small TV for my bedroom. Thanks
