New SD memory card MP3 players from Lexar rolled out

Tuesday June 7, 2005
Memory card maker Lexar is planning to make the most of their Secure Digital memory card market position in the pending release of the new LDP-200 MP3 player. This player, unlike most others in the market, comes with no built-in memory, instead requiring you to either use the bundled SD memory card or purchase one separately.

The LDP-200 ships in four different packages: no SD card ($49.99) or bundled with a 256MB ($89.99), 512MB ($119.99) or 1GB ($169.99) SD card. The card serves as the player's storage for MP3 and WMA (including DRM) music files. It comes in a slim, pocket-sized design with a small backlit, monochrome LCD, supports USB 2.0 and runs for up to 10 hours on an AAA battery.

"The LDP-200 digital music player features a convenient and simple management system with maximum versatility and portability," said Lance Ohara, director of product marketing, Lexar. "Coupled with the popular SD memory cards, the LDP-200 is the best choice for users who want unlimited storage capacity coupled with simplicity and flexibility. The SD cards make it reasonable to easily store an entire music libraries, cataloging selections on multiple cards by artist, genre, favorites, musical era, whatever category the customer wants."

Very logical. I curently store music on my SD cards and replay on my IPAQ, howver this does not allow me to use it during my jogging. This is a great next step; the down side is that I will have to get rid of my current MPS (Rio) player.
