What is your reaction, if somebody tells you that with only $30 and a little bit of patience, you can have a complete set of open source and hackable MP3 player? Didn’t it sound interesting to you here?

Instead of the low cost, this open source MP3 player can either be modified to accept any serial commands, be embedded in an art project, being used as the voice of your next smart talking robo-sidekick, or it can be simply filled with music!

Furthermore, you can put it in whatever size card you want and it’s up to the theoretical limit of the MMC format.

For your information, this MP3 player is features a shuffle mode, basic track navigation, volume control, FAT32 support, fragmented file support, an unlimited number of files on the root directory and high quality playback! Beside that, all of the files at 256kbps can be played without even a hitch and the variable bitrate files are fully supported with peaks up to 320kbps.

Although it also supported the WAV files, but it has to be less than CD quality except you put a faster oscillator in the pic.
