With the included 32 MB SmartMedia card and bundled RealNetworks' RealJukebox software, the Phillips SA101 Rush MP3 player seamlessly downloads, stores, and plays back MP3 files from the Internet. And because it has no mechanical parts, the Phillips SA101 Rush provides uninterrupted playback even if it's bumped or jarred. Its compact design features a bright LCD screen that displays artist information, track time, and bit rate. The digital equalizer supplies a range of custom sound for all of your MP3s.Downloading MP3 files from the Internet is quick and simple. The compressed digital MP3 files are first downloaded by your PC, then stored on a SmartMedia flash memory card using RealJukebox. Downloading a three-minute song to the player takes about 25 seconds, while a single 32 MB memory card stores just under an hour of music. It is also possible to endlessly erase and overwrite music, and the bookmark feature allows immediate access to the beginning of up to 10 songs. The Phillips SA101 Rush provides 12 hours of operation using two AAA batteries.
The Phillips SA101 Rush is compliant with current Secure Digital Music Initiative (SDMI) proposals, which means that you can download any existing or future MP3 files. It is also Audible ready, so it can play spoken-word audio available from audible.com. A 32 MB SmartMedia card, set of stereo earphones, parallel port cable, and an AC/DC adapter are included with the Phillips SA101 Rush. Measuring 3 by 3 by 0.66 inches, this player easily slips into your pocket.
