I dont see the justification in 60-90 bucks for 512 MB :blink:
and you still have to shell out the 90 +tax at the counter,
unless they're offering instant rebates :P
I just got it, It was like 91 somethin with tax. I havent tested it yet since my fuckin batteries are dead :dry: Its got a lifetime warranty so you can go wrong with that :D
Can someone send me a battery please? AAA :D :unsure:
Thanks :P I cant find what speed this card is like 66x ect... Can someone help?
I just found this....
:angry: Is that gonna be slow for putting songs on it?! :frusty:Quote:

Performance
The FL100's sound quality was quite good in our tests, with a respectable 85dB signal-to-noise ratio. Even with the less than impressive included earbud headphones, the music maintained a clean sound. With a decent set of headphones, the FL100's ample bass response--the Achilles' heel of many portable players--was also notable.
Despite manufacturer claims of 11 hours of battery life, our alkaline AAA petered out after about 8 hours. File-transfer speed was a somewhat poky 0.46MB per second, so filling 128MB takes about four and a half minutes.
* Speed** - Up to 5MB/sec. read rate
Up to 1.5MB/sec. write rate
If its 1.5mb/sec then about 2-4 seconds per song.
@VB1234 he's not in Texas, thats just the name of one of the albums from the band he's named after.
Also i must admit you paid alot more that you should have and by the sounds of it didnt even geta very good one.
Peerzy, you say its about 2-4 seconds per song but it isnt. Its about 2-3 mins per song or more. Im gonna take it back and order a Sandisk Ultra II 512 card from ncix.ca It took 25 mins to put 16 songs on this card, pathetic isnt it? :dry:Quote:
