Hey all,
I have an idea for an mp3 player. Does anyone know where i can get on small, cheap, and easy to take apart. If so help me out. Thanks.

Id go ebay. Maybe look for open box deals at best buy or whatever.

Let me guess, you want to disassemble an MP3 player, disassemble your favourite handheld/console, then integrate the MP3 player into the system.

You know Lady Ada, has on her site a guide to make your own Mp3 player. And to my knowlege its was somewhere between $50-80, but I dont think it went that hight.

I take it that from how you replied you didnt look at the page. On it its using a compactflash card to store the mp3s. I'd say $50 for a compactflash mp3 player is a great price as I see most for $80+ and then you have to pay for the card as well.

USB flash drives are different from Compactflash cards. I'd like to have a Compactflash mp3 as you can have several cars like a hand full of 64 mb one (which are last I saw like $15-20) and switch, while with a USB one your stuck until you get to a computer.

Works only for JumpDrive Sport

You would have to buy their jumpdrives.

check out the Yampp-7 www.yampp.com . i've ordered all the IC's as free samples, so all i have to pay for is the board (either the stuff to make it myself with the Uv method, or buy it from the shop) and resistors, caps, and a CF card. the total should be around $10 a player, then whatever i have left on a big ass CF card.
