Fred Falk, president of e.Digital, said, "We are pleased to expand our ongoing relationship with SanDisk, the leader in flash memory for data storage. We chose CompactFlash for its size, high capacity, serialization feature, simple interface and reliability. Our SDMI (Secure Digital Music Initiative) compliant music player features our patented MicroOS(TM) file management system and plays music stored in Lucent's EPAC audio format, which offers high security features and excellent sound quality."

Joyce Eastman, director of audio initiatives, Lucent's New Ventures Group, said, "We chose SanDisk as our flash memory card vendor for its leadership in this market. We are taking the current generation of portable players to the highest levels of audio quality and design. Together with e.Digital and SanDisk, we have designed an EPAC player that offers excellent sound quality and copyright protection."

Nelson Chan, vice president of marketing at SanDisk, said, "With SanDisk CompactFlash being selected as the storage media for the EPAC music player, we are continuing to establish a strong foothold in the Internet music player market. SanDisk has worked very closely with Lucent Technologies and e.Digital to establish a reference design which we believe will spark new design wins for our CompactFlash card. We are pleased to be working with market innovators like e.Digital and Lucent and plan to continue this relationship for future products in this market."
