Ive had mine less than 30 days but I bought it from an individual off of Ebay so returning it to him is not going to be an option.

And yea, I had 1.25 installed. That did stop SOME of the lockups but there were still a lot of them. I use the Karma every day, 1-2 hours a day and it seems like it locked up 2-3 times a week.

For a while I had a paperclip stuck on my headphone cable but I removed it because I had went about a week without a lockup and didn't feel like looking for it when I was going out. I figured "It will be okay." I get about 2 miles into my 5 mile walk and it locks up so there I am 2.5-3 miles from home with no way to reset this thing. So I have to listen to the hard drive spin up and down and up and down and up and down (You get the picture) while I made my way back home.
