Djelibeybi Code Monkey Member 265 Member For: 22y 6m Location: Canberra, ACT Posted 14/01/03 10:31 PM Share Posted 14/01/03 10:31 PM I think what CJ means is a player that doesnt take a disk or card of any sort to play and with decent capacity to hold a fair amount of MP3's onboard that'll plug into the Aux plug. That could be what he meant, but its not what solid-state means. :-) But I am also in the market for a decent high-capacity MP3 player and I'll probably go with an iPod or Nomad C, once I've paid for Christmas. :D Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/594-mp3-player/page/2/#findComment-6172 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nmitch59 Guests Posted 14/01/03 11:48 PM Share Posted 14/01/03 11:48 PM Depends on the size of the disk. There are 5, 10 and 20GB options, mine was personalised ie had my name engraved and is 20GB. Cost of $1045. My wife is going O/S and will take it with her and get refund of the GST so net cost approx $950. It also doubles as a spare HDD and uses the Firewire card to download to and from my PC. The iPods come in MAC OS or Windows now and comes with iTunes (Mac) or Music Match Jukebox (Windows). Download time for 2500 songs was 11 minutes using the Firewire.See here for more detailshttp://store.apple.com/133-622/WebObjects/....3.1.1.0?374,38MitchPS - my Maths is bad, should have said 4000 songs not 8000 in my initial post Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/594-mp3-player/page/2/#findComment-6184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anthoc Guests Posted 18/01/03 05:52 AM Share Posted 18/01/03 05:52 AM Griffin Technologies sell an FM transmitter for the iPod so you can do away with the aux cable. I personally don't like the cable. The input is too low and it's noisy.

The FM Modulator solution may mean loss of high/low end frequency response if it does not have wide enough bandwidth ....It will also be susceptible to RF interference.
