entityuk: Ran the trial on my 680 and its constantly crashing. Not inspiring me to buy until the bugs are fixed.

conradknapp: Really liked the overall ease of use and look of the program but on my 600 did make it restart, all my info was saved but was annoying, other than that pretty good
nightmedic30: Very nice! Very functional. Installed on my 650 without a snag and works cleanly. On the downside while it can make use of SD inventory of music, the program has to live on the internal memory.
tomlinkusa: Very pretty and nice function - but I experienced 4 system resets in the 1/2 hour or so I was testing it. Probably an incompatibility with something else I have, but the trace database reported all the failures in Busker.
This is not ready for prime time. I would not accept this in freeware, and no way would I pay for it.
lon521: no wma or ogg support but very nice interface. the album art download does not seem to find the covers. but this is probably the best of a bad lot.
austin96: Repeatedly crashes my Treo 600. Anyway to fix this?
Buy Treo 650 or 700 ! bwahhhhhh!
cellneuron: Great. Anyway to download Lyric automatically?
laissi: Thank you
haci1973: excelent

Features
Using Busker MP3 is easy - download and install it to your Palm OS PDA or smartphone, then feed it an SD card with your MP3's on it. Busker scans the card and builds an index of the tunes it finds - it even matches up tracks and artists with different spellings, to give you a nice and tidy list of music.
To get instant playback, tap Busker's QuickMix - Busker selects 15 tunes at random and begins to play instantly. If you'd rather select a tune, simply tap through the artist and album until you find the track you want, then tap it to play.
If your MP3 tracks contain album art - and more and more do these days - then Busker springs into action, and shows the artwork right on your PDA screen. Its truly amazing to see the music your listening to, and Busker is the only Palm MP3 player to do this.
No need for iPod Photo envy if you're a Busker user :)
There's lots more to explore, so take a look through Busker's menus - which offer you different views, playback of your last 10 tracks, repeat mode and more...!
