I have a Rio Nitrus 1.5 gig mp3 player, with drop'n'drag capability, but which is normally driven off of the USB from the computer software.
I also have a fairly high-tech digital camera.
I normally take pics at the highest resolution possible, as you can always decrease, but never increase.
Has anyone seen any info/writings/whatever that suggests a way to hook these two units together with the USB cable and drop pics onto the storage capability of the Nitrus? 1.5 gig makes for a lot of cards, and I get tired of carrying the laptop around.

Probably not. You would need some way to get the mp3 player to actively download from the camera. Right now, presumably, you use the computer totell it to do that. But you won't have that capability without the computer.
Apple iPods now can be purchased with a card reader, which is essentially what you want for your mp3 player. Of course, before apple added this device, you couldn't use the 20-40gb of memory on the ipod to save photos, etc.
Things called image tanks exist for the purpose you want. but thats a few hundred $, which is more than the free you were hoping for, i imagine.
