+  \item[Current limitations.] Most Rockbox functions are usable on the
+    \playertype{}, including music playback and most plugins, but
+    there are a number of shortcomings that prevent it from being a fully
+    supported target:
+    \begin{itemize}
+      \item A MicroSD card is required to run Rockbox, since the internal
+        flash memory hasn't been figured out yet.
+      \item There is only basic touchscreen support. Further work is
+        required to make the UI more usable with a touchscreen in general.
+        \note{The touchscreen can be used in two modes, either a 3$\times$3 grid mode
+          which divides the screen into areas to emulate a set of physical
+          buttons (the default setting), or ``absolute point'' mode where the
+          touchscreen is used to point to items on the screen.\\}
