The "$100" cost of the Dataplaty drive if included built-in the device or bundled with it must be absorbed by the manufacturer and passed on to the consumer. This means a price point at least $100 higher than a similar device with a CF or SD slot.

It cannot be stressed enough how important Price points are in this market segment. The latest magic target for upcoming MP3 players is $79. Please tell me how a Dataplay device can sell for $79.

This thing is doomed.
