Timely topic since I just started looking around for mp3 players. I followed the link and saw the Rio 600 and 800 is supported by this. How do you like the 600, I am looking for something will be compact enough to wear while working out in the gym?
Actually the rio riot looks just like what I have been looking for, fm tuner with mp3 playback. But it doesn't look like that is supported. :( On Thu, 2002-01-10 at 17:43, gnerd wrote: > Tools for loading them with music are pretty sparse.
