Success! While waiting for them to contact me back since January, I
tried the form on the website to get a response from them. Finally
(stupid that I waited so long), I contacted the person that would have
gotten back to me. This person replied within 24 hours, stating that
"firmware will _soon_ be available". Contacted me again this morning,
firmware is now available, and I am now listening to my Oggs on my
Pretec Allegro!
I'm so happy! <grin>
Not the fanciest player, but the only player I know of that plays Oggs
(now it does!) and uses removable storage media! (I can put Oggs on my
camera's CompactFlash and listen to it using my USB CompactFlash
reader.)
