I have one of these, works decent. The card doesn’t stick out like that, its just so show you that it IS an SD card. The one problem I have with it is the “resume play.” Without a display, its hard as hell to find a song unless you know the play list by heart (and without a shuffle feature, another annoying thing about it, you probably will) but it seems to have a half-ass way of saving the last played song. As in it works half the time. I let it sit for a minute after pulling it out and it sometimes saves the spot. My last issue is the power save mode (or lack there of). If I forget to shut off the switch (hard toggle, not push button) then its dead next time I go to play it. The battery does have a decent life though, doesn’t seem to be damn Ni-Cad with memory (thank god). $22 for me is a lot better than $200+ for a audio deck with SD/USB support plus being in the neighborhood I’m in, a tape deck is pretty good theft deterrent. ;-)

Do they have one for 8-tracks?
Maybe record players?
Oh, how about a Player Piano MP3 player???
that would be steampunk
especially if it was powered by steam

Hey Dave. There’s a built-in 450mAh lithium battery that’s recharged by the USB cable. Not sure about how long it’ll last, though.

This would be great in my father’s 02 Lexus. The car is old enough to still have a cassette deck but not young enough to have had an MP3-reading disk player or an AUX jack built in it. It’d really handy for those who don’t want to deal with an FM transmitter for an iPod.

@Nate

I kind of agree, but it seems lots of cars still come with tape decks, I’m not sure why I don’t think anyone still makes tapes. Someone should really tell the car manufactures.

This would have been pretty cool about five years ago.

I can’t remember the last time I even laid eyes on a tape deck.
