Are there any other types of memory cards that can be used with the nx clie??? Like in the CF slot?

Thanks

[iebnn]

yulri8 there is a cf driver being worked on. Beta this april.

[yulri8]

oh... So does that mean I could possibly use the 1gb cards i see?
And are the type 2 cards the bigger thicker looking cards?

Thanks

[iebnn]

Yes you could even use 6GB CF cards, if you had $7.5k to burn

[yulri8]

wow thanks though i dont have 7 k to burn... maybe i can get a few of those $30 memory sticks though ...its a great price compared to what i got them for...about $80 of course they are sony...but doesnt make much of a difference.

I was just wondering but does the atrac3 format significantly reduce the size of mp3s? and can you only use atrac3 on atrac3 cards?

Thanks

Where is the rebate info? I could not find it on the ecost site.

[donaldekelly]

Here is the Lexar MS rebate info

[donaldekelly]

Oh. Ecost charges $8-10 for postage and $4 for handling.

So, $45 +$12 = $57
minus the $15 rebate = $42

Still a good price - but watch those added charges.

Go to amazon.com.. you can pick up a lexar 128MB for $31.33 after $15 rebate.... plus you get free shipping!

The rebate lets you pick up two sticks @ $15.00 off each... :cool:
