I also like that...

    Pandora autoplay

    Thank you. I like the 4200 and just reading up on it now. I also see that Kenwood has their DDX9903S too. I'm comparing the 4200 and the 9903 at the moment.

    Wrong date

    not sure if it will make a difference but worth a try. go into settings>Date and time and turn off "Automatic Date and time". see if that makes a difference.

    Good article on why Samsung (and other companies) are getting rid of MicroSD Cards
