Nike 32Mb MP3 Player $30

[ai42]

Howdy guys... I don't know why nobody posted this before. I saw this like 2 days ago on techbargins...

Best Buy today has this in their ad:
Nike Nsa Play 60 (32Mb Mp3 player)
for 99.99 - 20 Instant Rebate - 50 Mail in Rebate

Not to bad... I'm getting it in a little bit.

Sorry if this may be a repost but I did search and couldn't find it.

I just got mine, not sure if I'm going to use it. Bought it cuz it's $30.

I was originally going to get one of these to workout with until I read the reviews at epinions.com and from people that had it. I decided to pay a little extra and get the intel pocket concert. It has excellent reviews. I ordered it last week and can't wait to get it.

This is an awesome price for the nike if it doesn't fall through. Heck, I may go and get one today for a backup.

I picked up one of these at CC on Black Friday for the same price, and it's been fine for use during workouts. It's small and very lightweight. The headphones aren't the best, but I had a good pair laying around to use. There is no display on the unit itself, just on the remote, but that's been fine for how I'm using it. You can upgrade with smartmedia cards, and I've been using a 64mb card with no problems. Overall, it's not worht $79 or $99, but at $29 I think it's an excellent value.

If it can take 64M smartmedit, that's a great deal. newegg $22 64M

only mp3? how about wma? usb? Any review about it?

 

[DDDay]

This unit uses MMC memory!! It cost more that Smartmedia and Compact Flash. It is also much smaller!

32mb of Mr Flash at Newegg cost $24 + 5 shipping

 

[DaHan]

Too bad it's not smartmedia. Here's the nike link.

Somec, can you confirm if it can take smartmedia or not, since nike didn't give too much info about this.

FWIW:

Not being into the .MP3 scene, so to speak, the advice I got here at anandtech was to consider, as a more expensive / satisfactory alternative for my kids, was:

TDK MOJO CD-MP3 Portable Digital Jukebox

for $85 w/S&H after $20 MIR (11/30 - 12/31/01).

CDs, .WAV, .MP3, 650MB+, 45 second anti-skip, ....

Very nice..a christmas present for my brother. Thanks for the heads up ... Any one know who the MIR company is... BB or Nike?

 

[lookuphere]

I own this player and it doesnt take smartmedia, only multimedia (MMC) cards. THis player is great for jogging and looks nice. It is compatible with .wma file formats and .mp3.

 

[Southerncentralrain]

What is the best thing for batteries for these mp3 players?

 

[PsychoAndy]

They only use 1 AA, so i doubt that's gonna break your back in battery purchases...

 

[Tung]

only if this thing used compact flash or smartmedia
nice deal though.

Can't tell seams to be BB rebate, because it is being sent to a rebate processing center in Phoenix, where I sent my last 2 rebate to.

 

[TOFUguY]

can anyone please pick one of these up for me????? PLEASE???????
i was going to buy a minidisc player for my best friend [he got his stolen] but if i get this, it would be so much sweeter on my pocket!!

ill add some money for your troubles and ill owe you a favor in case u cant get in on a deal =]

 

[aphex]

My friends and i raided our local Bestbuy this morning right after they opened (in our hungover stuper). Grabbed the last 3 they had on the shelf.

As for the unit, im very impressed. Sound quality is great and the build seems sturdy. GREAT DEAL AT $30!!!!!

 

[iamme]

Any details on the rebate?

Link?

 

[blots]

if youre worried about the batteries--just get the CC 20pack of maxell AA batteries that are floating around---free after $9.99 MIR

 

[Looney]

Dammit, too bad this requires a MIR. I hate dealing with that crap.

 

[iamme]

Does anyone know when the MIR and IR expire?

 

[bigrash]

can anyone find this on bestbuy's website? I can't seem to find it there.

 

[MrNutz]

can't find it either...must be only B&M...damn it sucks that the closest BB is in New Orleans for me and the only computer store in town is CrapUSA

 

[aphex]

The rebate prints out at the register, and yes this is only B&M... Limit at 5 per store...

 

[kevman]

anoyne know a cheap source for MMC cards amd NImH batteries and chargers? I just picked one up, for $30 you CANNOT go wrong!!

 

[aphex]

Newegg has a 64meg card for $53 shipped but its out of stock.
