How much music can you hold on a 128 mb card, and also on a 256 mb card. Also does anyone know if in the TJ35, the flip cover has a place to put the card. Thank you

The general rule is 1 minute = 1 mb

that's pretty accurate for encoding at 128 kbps.

You should also be aware that 128 mb sticks aren't truly 128 mb. There is some space always allocated for file systems so that you lose at least 5-10% of your memory before you ever put anything on it.

not true, the reason why you don't get the full 128mb is because they define mb as 1000kb instead of the real def. of 1mb=1024kb.


That's why you lose about 5-10 mbs on a 128mb stick.

Good point. Also wouldnt the formatting of the MS take up some room?
