The BA800 features 256MB of internal memory so that you can store a good amount of music and images, including JPEG, TIFF, BMP, and GIF files. Photographs burst onto and fade from the egglike device's 1.8-inch color LCD. Using the included Windows-only BitExplor 3.0 software, we were able to squeeze 56 MP3s and 33 JPEGs and TIFFs onto the player. In case you need more space, the BA800 has a top-loading SD memory card expansion slot.
Audio control buttons line one side, and a soft-to-the-touch but awkward navigation controller lies underneath the colorful, hi-res screen. The BA800's underside features a headphone jack, a USB port, and a port for the included docking cradle. The backside sports a Hold switch.

Review: Give me a built-in video player, and I'll pay the $300. But until then, no thanks.
