I love it, and would buy another...

This MP3 Player has given me hell.But don't get me wrong... it's a love-hate relationship. It's incredibly attractive with a sleek and shiny back and an easy-to-maneuver front. It's lightweight and hold's in your palm nicely. The sound quality is great and I play it for long hours and it has lasted for a long time.That being said, I've had my Rio for 10 months, and I've dropped it a few times (no practical protective case, really). Problems I've encountered have been it shutting off and bearing...

Great player and easy to use

I managed to get this player brand new for $69.99 during a clearance sale.It is great for long commutes and work.It works as advertised and I get about the stated battery life depending on current volume.The only thing they should have changed was the carrying case.You can't use the main buttons when the player is in the case....

0 stars - piece of *%$&

I've probably used this thing for 10 minutes in all the time I've had it and spent hours trying to get it working.Don't bother wasting your money.First, it didn't power up at all.then, it powered up but the pc no longer recognized it.I finally got it all working AND charged up the battery, upgraded the firmware, etc.Unplugged it to listen to it and what do you know?None of the buttons are reponding.It looks like it's cycling through the songs but can't hear anything.Now it doesn't get recognized...

My third Rio product - this was a super deal!

Apparently unlike many of the reviewers here at Amazon, I have been pleased with Rio products thus far - first one was one of those little 126k MP3 players, then moved up to a Cali 256k.I'm very accustomed to using Rio's Music Manager software as a result.Anyways...I've been wanting to get a player that would be compatible with Napster2Go, but until recently most of the subscription-based players have cost $200 or more...too pricey for me :) so when I saw the Rio Carbon selling for $99 here at Amazon...

Fantastic while it lasted

Like one of the previous reviewers, my player conked out. It was a great little easy-to-use player but just upped and died on me. I've had it for only seven months....
