mp3 player ijam for $73... good for digicam owners...

[hans007]

I was thinking of getting a CF card based mp3 player and well there was the rca lyra and the ijam. The reviews of the ijam dont make it sound so great, but thats not the point. At buy.com its $83 -$10 off 75 all customers coupon + free shipping. You dont need special software to put mp3s onto it and it uses standard CF cards. The best thing is it comes with a USB CF card reader. That ways you just drag your files to your CF card and pop it in. The reader has got to be worth $30 and the 8mb card at least $10, so you get the ijam for $40 or so. Not bad i'd say especially if you have already invested a lot in CF cards (i've got a 48, an 8 and a 16 already)

how is $83 - $10 = $40 or so?

$83-$10 coupon-$30 USB CF card reader-$10 8mb CF card actually = $33.

$40 or so if you sold the 8mb card and reader, i was thinking from my point of view, since i've got a lexar card with ajumpshot cable already. I'm still debating on whether to buy it but i think i will

just checked egay. CF reader sell for around $25 there , and 8mb CF cards also for around $25. So $73-50 is $23, if you already have a reader and CF cards its a great deal.
