Great....
We want MP3.
So, Palm can count me out. I will not be buying any product emasculated by Liquid[****]Audio.

Secure Music?????
I don't mind paying for music, but I want my fair use!! The ability to play my music where I want whenever I want. Why is Palm bending over for the record labels and not their customers!

Music format
It's been proven over and over again that proprietary formats fail.
However, I couldn't care less what Palm does with music since I don't listen to music on my Palm OR MY iPAQ.
Now, with that said, I hope I miss understand what Liquid audio is all about.

RE: Comment retraction
I guess the main question is can you download MP3 songs, or transfer songs from a CD to your Palm using Liquid Crystal technology? If so, then that would be fine.
Anyway, the only thing clear about this, is that I don't understand it! (therefore I retract my negative statements until I understand the technology)
RE: Music format
Does anybody care?
Whatever :(
Why bother?
Sure it has an expansion slot but expansions cards are expspensive (~$50 for 64mbs so what you're really saying is it'll cost about $5 a song to add them to your player). Why bother.
I purchased a Phillips cd walkman in January that will play regular cdda CDs, as well as CDRWs full of MP3, which means, depending on file size I get about 130 songs on a disk. I crunched my entire cd collection into 4 disks and now it goes with me where ever I go. And when I get there I can pop out the disk and play it on the desktop computer; or when chillin in the house play it on my new mp3 enable DVD player.
Full price, including blank CDRWs was slightly under $200. Now to have the same volume of music available with the porteson, my m100 and expansion cards would be $2,281.

Palm "never" does anything in consumer space
OTOH -- maybe this will quiet the critics who say that Palm "never" does anything for the consumer market (ala Sony).
With the aquisition of Be technology, and this one, it sure seems apparent that Palm is aware they need to enable multimedia content into the platform -- and soon!
I'm looking forward to the day when a Palm handheld has special chips for quality audio output. It will help with audio-based applications of course, but it will also help with games, video clips, as well as really cool alarm sounds!
I just hope we don't have to wait to 2003...
