Even though I would prefer 8GB of internal memory, the SD expansion is precisely why I bought the D2. With an 8GB Clix, all you can ever have is 8GB. With my D2 I will eventually be able to have 36GB, at one time, plus however many additional cards I may want, making it virutally limitless. And by the way, even if I were to "lose" whatever I have on one card when I swap it with another, it is of no consequence since what I want is on the other card.

This has been addressed but I'll add my two cents just because I can.
If one uses only the SD card, they will likely get better life than the Clix. Just by comparing the optimal playback hours as given by the manufacturers - 24 hours for the Clix2 and 52 hours for the D2 - is very telling in just how much more life you will get per charge out of a D2. My T30 is rated for 20 hours but there is no way I've ever gotten more than 18.
Like I said, the Clix2 is a great player, but you do get more bang-for-the-buck with a D2. And in the end all that matters is that they're not iPods.
