It seems I'm not alone

Some people go mad with stuff on the SD cards. MP3s, photos, audiobooks, I don't know what. It's certainly a small lump on which you can store zillions of MP3s, which definitely appeals to some. In fact, size is totally irrelevant in that it will sit inside the 930 permanently, taking up no space at all and you can play your MP3s through the 930's FM or lineout or bluetooth into your car stereo. Like Anita, I don't bother with them - that may be something to do with the fact that I'm so useless at MP3 stuff that I can't manage to get any onto the SD card in the first place - I did it once, but I can't remember how. But your 930 will cope happily at the moment with all its workings on internal storage and you could use the SD card simply for MP3s or whatever without conflicting with the internal storage - you can have MP3s on BOTH internal and external storage simultaneously and it'll display both for selection to play - you could have boomy boomy stuff on the internal and decent Black Dyke Mills Band on the card and then the hooligan kids could have boom or you could have decent stuff depending who's in charge at the time.

Or like Anita (and me) you could have an alternate set of files to run the 930 from, and/or load another map on (because she's such an international person, Anita has a South Africa map too). And it's all no bigger in your pocket or handbag than the original 930.

Thanks for your replies Anita and Dennis. I don't think I'll be bothering with the Mp3's seeing as I'm still getting the hang of putting cd's into my car's boot loader and I still haven't managed to work out how to turn off the 930's jukebox. As for the 930 fm thing, I fiddled about with my cars fm tuner for ages and couldn't find an empty frequency anywhere on it(mind you I found loads of empty ones on my home radio so that's wierd), so I don't think I'll be using that particular feature either. However, I do like the idea of the audio books, but sourcing and downloading them is another major step for me!

Like you two, I guess I should be considering the use of a sd card for the additional files etc, just let me get the audio books challenge out of the way first!

You don't (well I don't on my 920) turn off the jukebox, you click the pause button then go away. Don't ask me to explain TT logic in this. It's probably similar to why the power off button doesn't turn the device off.

Actually that's what I've been doing Dennis, but it didn't feel right using the pause button, leaving it like its lurking there in the background.
