Q39: Can the Player LCD font be modified?
-A39: The simple answer is no. The more detailed answer is that we have
- the ability to change/create up to 4 chars on one model and 8 on another.
- We currently use several of this 'letters' to store icons for the player.
+A39: The simple answer is no. This is because the Player font is character
+ cell based (as opposed to the Recorder's bitmap based display). This
+ means that we are able to choose what characters to display, but not how
+ to display them. We do have the ability to change/create up to 4 chars
+ on one model and 8 on another, however we are currently using several of
+ these 'letters' to store icons for the player.

+Q40: Why don't you have any games available for the Players?
+A40: The display on the Players is character cell and not bitmap based.
+ This means we can only control what characters get displayed, not
+ what pixels are shown. This makes the prospect of game play very
+ slim (atleast for anything graphic involved).
