I would like to use my palm as a portable digital audio player and I was looking in to Sveta, but from what I can tell it doesnt work with palm.

Have you tried using Sveta in conjunction with Windows Media Player 7.1 (as is suggested on the Sveta download page)?

Sorry about that.
Do you already have the Tungsten?
I ask because the Sveta downloads page has a Generic Device driver to be used where the device (the Palm Tungsten in this case) shows on the system as a removable drive. In that case, you could try using the generic device driver.
I also noted that the Palm Zire and Tungsten use a version of Real Mobile Player for the Palm OS. This may require you to download through RealPlayer on your computer (the material I found on the Real website for the Mobile Player suggests this but does not out and out say so). I suspect that this program would also be dealing in Real Media files which seem to be a problem for other programs to deal with but again I have not dealt with RealPlayer for some time so I am judging this from the problems reported by users of dBpowerAMP Music Converter in trying to work with Real Media files.
Perhaps a user more experienced and up to date with Real Media could offer better insight/advice.
Best wishes,

The Real player is the default built in piece of crap that comes with the palm OS (if anyone knows how to get it out, let me know). But there are many others like Pocket Tunes (which may soon have MPC support) available. I already own a T3

I am around, I tend not to reply to wish items, as they always end up 'why can you not do it'. To be fair on the players there is a sticky first message, you can reply the player you want support there for.
