Price Paid: $200.00 from Best Buy

Summary:
The Rio unit has performed flawlessly during the past year of VERY heavy usage. I travel 40+ weeks per year and while out of town, the Rio is my primary audio source. Great battery life and it has worn out several sets of headphones. The sound quality is excellent with plenty of volume for plane travel. It is easy to add/delete music using the USB connection.

Strengths:
Simple - easy - great audio quality

Weaknesses:
Needs larger memory to hold more music.
