Can you give me some examples of those sites? I haven't found anything, especially here in the states. Thanks!


What about Ebay?? I got mine from there for 39 € (about 39 $), which was quite cheap, i think. The 128 MMC Card was even more expensive (103 €/$)

I got one this morning plus a 128mb MMC. It's pretty good. But don't bother with the included mmc reader. It has to attached to a parallel port and a PS/2 port to work, and the drivers/software can be a pain.

I got a tiny USB MMC / SD card reader. Its a lot faster and needs no drivers on windows 2000/XP.

The only problem is it doesn't really match my nice new T68i in design, and seems to come off rather easily when in your pocket.

http://www.mp3pro.ws looks not bad for mp3pro. But remember: it won't work with the HPM 10.

and here you get the drivers, that work under WinXP:
ftp://ftp.scmmicro.com/dm/drivers/Ppmmc.zip

... adn a tool to erase old drivers:

Have FUN!!

Thunda: Still lookin where to buy from? £34.37 (GBP) http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=HPM-10

Also MusicMacth Jukebox comes with the pack for ripping CD tracks to MP3 files.

May have a few problems installing the driver if using XP, but that can be sorted, get back to you on that one

I purchased a 64MB card from Komplett for a pretty good price, only to find that my MMC reader wouldn't work with it.

So after contacting support about this, they say that the MP3 player only supports 32MB cards. But I think this is more of the MMC reader only supports 32MB cards as you guys are all using 128MB cards in the MP3 player. Just need to get myself a decent MMC reader as the one you get if rubbish.

Psykotik: If your still looking for somewhere to buy the MP3 player from try the EShop on the sonyericsson web site, suprisingly they sometimes have good prices on accessories. Last time I checked the MP3 player was just under 30 (GBP). I got mine for about 35(GBP) from expansys but Im not sure Id buy from them again as their customer service wasnt what I expected when I had a faulty reader.

Ive pretty much given up on the reader that came with the player and got a Sandisk USB reader that takes the MMC and SD cards. But then I also have a digital camera that takes the same cards so it was a bit easier to justify spending out on a new reader.

That is definitely wrong. IT WORKS!!

Wrong. Also the PP Reader supports the 128 Mb card. OK, it takes a while 2 fill the 128 Mb, but it works!! Use the newest drivers. You should get the link on this site. It`s a little bit tricky with Win2k or XP, but ist works. Under 9x its no problem at all!

Hmm, partially. A little bit slow & 2 much cables. ;-| But as I said before: IT WORKS!
