Excellent product.

Very good build quality. I didn't use/own a generation 4, let alone one with WiFi, but the one I tried (one of the older models, heavier, bigger, not as bright => not as good) was really very good.

The new ones look really really good. In fact, I'm asking one for Christmas. The 504 has more battery and more HDD for the same price, but no WiFi.

Anyways, I really recommend it, they make top notch high end portable players.

what are the restrictions on wifi?
