I have the Clip Sport which is built on the same platform as the Clip Jam. The Clip Jam is very similar to the Clip Sport except that the Jam has a smaller battery(18 hours vs 25 hours of battery life) and the Jam has a smaller display which can't show album art, while the Sport can show album art. There is no Rockbox for either. Both players are limited to 2,000 songs internal memory, and 2,000 songs card memory. The card memory is in a separate database from the main memory. I also have Rockboxed Clip+, and Rockbox Clip Zip players. My advice is to get the Clip+ or Clip Zip and Rockbox it, unless the extra battery life of the Clip Sport is very important to you. I want the extra battery life, but not if it means having a lower capacity player, and not having Rockbox. With the original firmware, Sandisk players often have trouble with cards faster than class 4. I only use class 4 cards with my Sandisk players. A few people have reported that class 10 cards work fine in a Clip+ or Clip Zip when used with Rockbox.
