Always when in my car.  The worst thing about my car is the lack of a
real antenna and lack of a signal booster to compensate.  Plus, I also
on a regular basis drive out of range of my local radio favorites.  So
rather than search for and map different stations, I just use a
portable music player.

What I'm trying to do here is to converge the function of the separate
portable player into my Treo.  To do this, convenience is at the top of
the list of "must haves", otherwise it'll remain more convenient to
continue using a separate device.

Since no single SD card available yet will hold my entire collection,
this convenience includes being able to automatically update/change
what's on the card in the Treo while the card is in the Treo.  Double
maintenance, managing the music manually both on the desktop and on the
card separately, is a deal breaker.

The way it works with my dedicated portable player is that I load
Winamp, my currently preferred desktop music player/manager, plug in
the portable, and when Winamp finishes loading it, click the "Sync"
button.  Winamp then updates the music on the player by adding to it
anything I added to the desktop library and removing from it anything
that I have removed from the desktop library.  This is what I'm trying
to replicate with the Treo:  Plug it in, start the software and click
the go-button.
