> To clarify the device has 128mb of memory and an MMC/SD memory card slot
for "unlimited expansion".  That's the kind of thing on which I'm trying to
get a handle.  That sounds cool, but what does it really mean?

128mb will hold roughly two albums worth of moderately compressed mp3s.
Also, it's USB which is 12mb/s transfer rate. That's pretty slow relatively
speaking. It will take at least 10 seconds or so to fill the player with new
songs. That doesn't sound too bad but consider that it only holds 2 albums
and you'll probably be swapping songs a lot. Sit and count to 10. Now do it
again. Now do it one more time. If that seemed overly tedious, then it's
something to think about with your player choice. Some people don't mind it,
others get driven crazy by it.
