I like mine. It takes a while to input the titles (even via keyboard) and I was distraught when I had some kind of power hiccup that somehow erased it. It's pretty cool when I burn a CD with CD text, though. Search time isn't super fast, but it's OK by me.
I love the remote. If it only had a volume control it'd be about perfect.
I get MUCH more use out of my CD collection these days. I'm listening to songs that I haven't heard in years.
I like mine. I use it with a Slink-e (www.nirvis.com) computer interface, which eliminates the programming headache and greatly increases the usability of the player.
I'm not as in love with the 2-way remote, which I rearely use, except for Artist mode.
I bought mine from www.oade.com whom I highly recommend.
