The Lexar JumpGear MP3 expansion for the Lexar JumpDrive allows you to make use of the portable storage space you already have in your JumpDrive to play music off of. This is highly beneficial, especially for those who already own devices such as the 1gb version of the usb JumpDrive.
The Jump Gear expansion makes use of a USB connector within the device to connect it to the JumpDrive. This permits you to insert the JumpDrive with little difficulties and have a system that looks and feels like it is one piece instead of being two.
The true beauty of the Lexar JumpGear MP3 expansion is the fact that it allows you to swap in and out any portable Lexar flash memory sticks that are compatible with it. This gives you the ability to have several of them available with different types of music that you can change in and out whenever you feel like it.
This is a great benefit, especially if your friends want you to listen to their music and they have their own Lexar memory units with them.
