• unluckily , the Upstage wo n’t roleplay any other class of DRM ( the songs from Sprint are n’t DRMEd , in reality , which is squeamish ) . So your iTunes , Zune , Napster , and other form of DRMed medicine wo n’t be able-bodied to be play on this .

• It comes with 64 MB built - in memory , but will admit 1 and 2 GB flash cards .

• The Upstage will not be capable to utilize medicine you ’ve downloaded from their 1.4 million track repository for MP3 ringtones .

• you’re able to download cartroad both over the air ( OTA ) or on your PC , and the service will remember which tracks you ’ve download .
