Query: Almost excellent

Having just purchased the Rio500, I must say that I am pretty impressed with the design, ease of use of the unit and the quality of the playback, provided other headphones are used.Two points to note. The Audio Manager is a pain to use as quite a few steps are required to transfer each piece of music. Facility being the watchword of the Rio, this seems a bit of a shortcoming in the software design department. Also, I have not yet been able to transfer 2 hours of music from any source to the Rio. One hour and forty minutes is the most I've been able load before I reach the saturation point of 64megs. Just a couple of things to be aware of if you are in the market for an mp3 player.
