Yay! Now if they could fix it so that the currently playing song would not skip when the screen turns off or the volume level is adjusted, I'd be 100% happy with it! I've already deleted Aeroplayer. :D The latest version of Pocket Tunes (1.6.1) has fixed my snapping sound problem. Yay!

Maybe they use different loading routines. I also heard/read that Sandisk cards in general are a bit on the slow side when used in Palm devices. Maybe your card is just fast enough for Aero, but too slow for PTunes. Just wild guesses, but since my problems were instantly solved when switching to the new card, that's the first thing I would take a look/listen at. Do you have any other card (different brand) available for testing? Frank I’m not sure, but I think that the crackle was a bit stonger in PTunes than in Auro.

I find it strange that the noises occur only in Ptunes and not in AeroPlayer. I’m using a 256mb Sandisk (so is Judie). I find it strange that the noises occur only in Ptunes and not in AeroPlayer.

Turned out just yesterday that something was wrong with the 32Mb Sandisk MMC I used for testing. It's either too slow or just plain buggy. The new 128Mb SD (also a Sandisk) works -> near-CD sound.
