I was interested in buying a HBM-30 Bluetooth MP3 player, and I'm hoping I could get a few questions answered:

1) What size/type memory sticks does it support? - I've read a few sites that say it won't accept anything bigger than 128mb, and that MS Pro Duo cards won't work at all.

2) How is the battery life with bluetooth?

3) Will the unit play the sound from video files/mp3s located on my phone? (which would help me get past the non pro duo support)

Thanks!

1. The HBM-30 slot is standard duo so can't use memory cards larger than 128mb. MS Duo memory architecture has a maximum 128MB capacity, hence the limit of the HBM-30. All cards larger than 128MB are MS Duo Pro. MS Duo Pro memory architecture has a 32GB limit.

2. Battery life is okay but i never used mine as a headset so can't offer much idea re: headset life.

3. No. The music on your phone will not play through the HBM-30.
