CF MP3s and Bluetooth

[rmchale]

Any ideas on how to play MP3s from flash and use a bluetooth memory stick?

Thanks,

Sorry, no, not at the moment, because the MS has to be hidden for the Audio Player to see the CF.

And of course there's no 3rd party MP3 players.... because Sony has forbidden this as well?

This solution makes not much sense for me?!! If the ms-slot is even masked when using a communication-ms like the bt-memory-stick, where is the benefit? I want Bluetooth and simultanesly access to my apps and data stored on the cf-card. If I can't have that I can still go for swapping ms and bt-ms.

And, who wants to contact all his applications developers and ask them for dual-slot-support and eruware-driver-support??

Even more fun for all wireless-lan-card-users which have to move theyr data and apps from cf-data to ms-data before inserting the cf-wlan-card??

I hope there will be a cf-bluetooth solution before the next nx-series-generation will come out with build bluetooth like the nz90 and the tg50. From this moment no one will anymore be interested in developing drivers for a bluetooth-cf-card for palm-os.

The problem as I understand it is that if an application supports multiple memory sticks than both will be reconized by default and can be used together.. However, Sony's own applications do not do this..

So you have to use MS Masquerading mode to use the MP3 player. This means that I cannot use a BT card at the same time.

If someone were to write thier own MP3 player with multiple MS support than you could "BT" & "MP3" at the same time. But there's no 3rd party MP3 players. Maybe next week.

Relax, it's just that most of us don't have any other need besides more memory. Still, I would prefer a soft-reset to a card change, but that's just a personal thing. Anyway, if you prefer to buy an mspro then do so. The choice is up to you. Eruware merely added a new option to the game.

With an MS Pro it will be impossible to listen to MP3s and SMS message (bluetooth) at the same time. I need two cards: one BT MS and something else with MP3s on them. A CF card is the only possible answer.
