Default Blue & Me With A USB Stick

Am I right in thinking Blue & Me will automatically sort itself out to work with my folders with music in & display the track names etc?

You are indeed right in thinking that Blue&Me will do just that!

Don't know whether you have had this demonstrated by your dealer, but with the voice recognition a verbal instruction will skip or repeat a track - how cool is that.
Sorry can't actually answer your question!!

Except at completely random intervals and for no apparent reason when it will just stop working completely...

...or is that just ever other Microsoft product?

That's where a reboot is call for - pull over on hard shoulder turn off ignition, wait 1 minute restart engine and hopefully it should have reset itself, failing that repeat the process, and after three attempts (and if you have not been arrested by the police for hard shoulder crawling) consult your network administrator!!!!!

Well, I tried using my iPod and it recognised the Albums and Artists fine, but wouldn't recognise the playlists. I then bought a memory stick, spent 5.5 hours transferring everything on to it - and it's the same!

Not sure what's wrong with my playlists, but it may take me some time to work it out at this rate!

Sorry for being dim but want to make sure we are all talking about the same thing, so I dont get confused.

Are you all referring to what is also called a flash drive like in the link?

Play.com (UK) : Play.com 8GB USB Flash Drive : PC - Free Delivery

That's the one.

To put it into pespective, I have 839 songs on a 4gb one at the moment & have only used 2.09gb. That's an awfull lot of music.

Sounds good to me, might be a lot easier that faffing about with my Ipod and buying the Ipod connection kit and holder etc
