Hi. I believe it is $425. It was when I bought my first bn classic. It is more expensive than using flash cards, but then you have that memory and it doesn't drain the unit like leaving in a flash card would.

Would that fix the problem of not enough room? This would cost more money, but it's better than forking out all that money for an MPower.

However, I must tell you that I have had more frustration >>with this upgraade than with any other. The problem is, there's >>too much of it! It fills the Flash disk, as well as the Keysoft >>System Disk.
