It has 128Mb of internal memory, but it also has a SD slot (capable of reading SD cards up to 512Mb). The player also has a FM Tuner and FM Transceiver. It also has 2 headphone plugs and plays MP3, Ogg and WMA."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/nhjmp3player.jpg" /><br /><br />Another small mp3 player (capable of other file formats as well) and has some basic features like FM tuner and 128MB of flash. But cool thing is that it has an SD slot so you have to ability to augment its memory capacity. I like this new generation of ultra small flash players that have SD slots. Can't wait for them to become SDIO slots. :)

imo, if a player is going to have less than 1GB built-in, it better have a SD slot for expansion. But limiting it to 512MB expansion? I wonder if those are actual specs or if that's an oversight by marketing, considering that SD cards are available in 2GB+ currently.

That is definitely a good point. The 512MB limit bothered me too, must have something to do with the way they do memory addressing.

How do you pronounce it? Is it 'vamp' or Vee-at-mp?

I think the @ is just L33T speak for 'a' so I am guessing Vamp.

Oh so they are trying to be cool and appeal to the script-kiddie crowd. I think the name could use some work.

Well, that and they were probably also trying to actually label their device as a vamp, which, according to dictionary.com, means "A woman who uses her sex appeal to entrap and exploit men." ;-)
