Found this on another site, but it looks good:
http://www.us.buy.com/retail/electronics/product.asp?sku=90049513
Player is $29.95 but the box has a $20 Skechers GC. (for a net of 9.95)
It has 8MB of storage and some software and stuff too.

Remember when the Commodore 64 had a full 64K of memory and you thought "How could I possibly use all that memory?"
Now we are scoffing at 8MB.
It is easily expandable with cards.
Also, you SHOULD be able to sell the Skechers GC for at least $15. There are several near me and I'm sure I could just hang out and sell one to a 14 year old white boy.
Also, this is the total price so you don't have to worry about rebates or anything else.

8MB could be a typo. According to their website, that model has 32MB od memory. Check it out:

Maybe not. The manufacture part # is SHB3108P. The '08' could be suggesting 8MB built-in memory. Also seen here: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/ex/shop/home/010521015135130039182223503028?pid=243300.

Dudedon't diss sketchers, i love their shoes, the boots kick ass and the new line of sketchers sport sneakers are very comfortable and durable, i did a ten hour hike through the black canyon , that's up to the knea in water and they are still good didn't fall appart or anything
skechers suck
they are for girls
and always will be
any pimply white kid who wears them is gay
a real poser skater would be wearign atleast DCs

This takes a Multimedia card. Is a multimedia card and Smartmedia one in the same or is this a new format? The picture of the card looks like smartmedia.
MM and SM are different, and incompatible.

The mmc on the buy.com site are pricey.
Ok I seen a post that Skechers.com has free shipping and 10% off(no reply to my "when expires" question yet)
Would be nice to get $20.00 off and 10% and free shipping.
Will post if I find out.

Die BUY.com Die
The $20 "Gift Certificate" is actually a $20 off $75 coupon (and you have to register the unit to get it -- i.e. open the box and send in the card)
Deceptive ads at their worst!!

I ordered this in the heat of the moment(shopping heat)
I was going to cancel it this morning be fore work,went to my account said sent to warehouse,there was no "cancel order" to click.
I get home from work..IT shipped!
Guess I'll send it back unless I find really cheap MMC.
