them, but let someone who has one tell you for sure.  There is a muvo 512
mix, if it still exists, which will play them, and, if you're into the big
bucks, the olympus ds 50. the new book port is supposed to be able to play 
them, too.  I don't think this new victor stream everyone is talking about
plays them. there are probably other mp3 players out there that will, but
many are not accessable.

some links to sites that sell these. Fergusson Enterprises sells the olympus 
with an smp3 disk with good instructions.
