Rio 64mb mp3 player?

Anyone have one of these?


Future shop has them on sale on boxing day for $100, and I'm thinking of picking one up. They have 64mb of memory and come with the USB stuff for transferring mp3s from computer to player.

that's a smokin' deal. I think the earphone on rio's are one of the best for biking. (wraps around the ear I think?)

uhmm, i don't think minidisc players are cheaper than mp3 players. also mp3 players don't skip (no moving parts) and use way less battery power. but mindisc players hold tons of music for sure.
