Is it real? Or is it..

What size headphone jack does it have? Description didn't say

Memorex makes mp3 players?

No Divx, No Peace!

If their MP3 players are anything like their CDs, then I will gladly buy 80 and place them on a shelf where they will remain for three to five years.

The same size as every other mp3 player in existance? 3.5mm.

Can I use this with iTunes?

I never comment on these things, but man this commentary on the home page rahlay cracked me up

MOST stereo MP3 use 3.5mm. Memorex makes CD-R not mp3 players... really?

Not a Sansa. Want sansa sansa sansa sansa...

How does this compare to the SanDisk Sansa?

Never heard of it.

Memorex has very shady support, so buyer beware, if this unit ever fails, consider yourself out of luck.

You'd be surprised how many make 3mm and not 3.5mm

*kicks old MP3 player*

I have an old Memorex MP3 player...still works. I like it. I trust the brand completely!

Okay, jokes over! Where is the real woot!

Can you play music while the unit is plugged in and charging?

Memorex, my Zune scoffs at thee

You are way better off with a sansa. The support would be much greater, and well it might work longer.

Or a recessed 3.5mm headphone jack.

*Kicks original iPhone*

there are a few things that would make this better. one, if it had a micro sdhc slot. two, if it wasnt memorex. And three, if it was a sansa

With a little hell, maybe, but it would be just easier to use it as a virtual disk and drag and drop.

What, not a Sansa?!

I don't if I should give in, 90 day warranty?

When I use this to test my blood sugar, can I program it to play Def Leppard's "pour some sugar on me" if I'm low?

sfcchase wrote:Can I use this with iTunes?

This is not compatible with iTunes. Only with Windows Media Player. Or drag and drop.

No...it sits in sync mode like a digital camera.

2GIG model over at selloutwoot if this is too much storage 4 ya.

I wonder if there's a significant difference between MMP8585 and MMP8585C models...

Found this manual for the MMP8585 model....

Support ? .. for what ? .. don't you just transfer the stuff over and listen/watch it ?

Memorex= Junk

When you say, "Memorex," I say, "Junk!."

Also if it played LP's

Darn, and I just bought 2 Sansa's from the Woot off. Oh, well, Sansa is a more reliable brand for MP3s anyways.

Well, it *can* use iTunes...it just takes quite a bit of patience and time to transfer the media files into Windows Media Player.

Support for as if the unit breaks under manufacturer warranty.
