    CNET Review

    November 10, 2003

    The Good: Compact and lightweight; SD expansion slot; FM radio; stopwatch; robust software; playlist support; strong battery life.

    The Bad: Doesn't feel supersturdy.

    The Bottom Line: Rio once again delivers one of the spiffier sports-style MP3 players.
