Summary

Description
English: It is here!!

Okay nice features. You plug it in and it shows up as a hard drive. Start dragging mp3's to it and you are good to go. This is a requirement for any mp3 players I get again. My MPIO FL100 is okay but that one feature really kept me from really liking it. And many of the other players in the space have to use a proprietary app. to put music on them, the Creative Zen, the Ipod family, and the Dell DJ's. So drag and drop the Rio Carbon has!!.. Oh Yea..

Also 5 Gig is a lot. I've got it nearly full now and I have 4.4 days worth of music on it.. I like that. And it doubles as a 5 Gig portable hard drive. And with USB 2.0 it can accept transfers faster than I can pull the songs off my file server. When the MP3's are local it is really fast.

Battery life seems to be pretty good. I've been trying for a couple of days to get it discharged so I can give it a full charge. Since I had it plugged into to various computers uploading 4.4 days worth of songs I've already given it a fair charge since it charges over usb. But I also have this nice little plug in that you hook the usb cable up to for charging as well.

I can make playlists in winamp and save them on the player and boom they work. I've not been able to figure out how to make playlists on my Mac OS X IBook yet. The best I can come up with is to use VLC drag the files to it save the playlist (comes out as .m3u) and then edit the playlist to pull out the directory entries that I don't need, you know the /volume/carbon stuff. Need to write a script for that.

Not to many misses. Would have like to pay a little less for it. Can't make playlists on my Mac, well if you know how let me know. And the silly case they sent with it. It protects it nicely but it covers up the controls and the read out. Duh... Some one was napping there. Anyway give it a thumbs up. And a

better than IPod rating, because I can drag and drop songs to it
