Absolute Junk.......2006-12-13

If there were zero stars...I would rate this pile of garbage with a 0. On the surface it appears to have many positive attributes. In fact, I bought this form my son thinking he would enjoy it and I would save a bit of money as compared to purchasing an iPod. The player broke just outside of the warranty period. I contacted the company and after 4 months of chasing them, they actually replaced the player. Initially I was very impressed. Then the player brake again. Like I said...Junk. I bought an iPod for my son. It has not broken down. He is happy and I am wiser.

Great MP3 Player!.......2006-05-02

20gig! Small than you think. Large LCD screen. Easy use of scroll and browsing the menu. Docking station w/ RCA output!!! If you don't care for videos or pictures and want to have this on your work desk or in your car, it's AWESOME for the price!

warranty exchange in limbo........2006-02-17

Bought this unit at the end of nov. scroll wheel broke middle of jan.it just flops around, unit was never dropped. cheaply made wheel support. sent back for warranty exchange. still no replacement . called rio ,was told its on backorder and they will ship me one when it comes in,who knows how long that might be, im not happy. dont buy rio. go with an ipod or another brand.customer service is no help at all.

rio karma.......2006-02-01

great deal excellent sound have not seen any problems with this player, others complain about bad hard drive but i have not had any problems, have only used it about a month, chose rio for the tone controls that no other player that i know of has, already had a chiba, but this is a hard drive player and as such should not be used while active,it just stays home or while travelling, the way i see it if the hd fails i'll just replace it with a 40g, easily replaceable on these units.for about $100

Big but awesome.......2006-01-31

It took a while to figure out how to download music using itunes. Once we established the proper software it was ok, you have to do a lot of typing in of the song and ablum titles. I love the way it sounds and plays the music but I wish it were a little smaller.
