I can't find the previous discussion of MP3 portable players, so I'll
use this item.  I broke down today and got a RioVolt CD/MP3 player.
It was stickered at $99.99, scanned for $10 less than that; the sales
clerk waved a 10% coupon under the scanner and the price went down some
more, and *then* there is a $20 rebate which I darn well better send 
in this time.   So, what, $60-$65 final cost?  Yay Best Buy.  Thanks 
to mcnally for encouraging me to keep looking.
 
There were a frustrating ten minutes of trying to figure out the 
folder navigation, and then it all made sense.  
 
Sounds great on these Spanish folk MP3s by a band called Na Lua 
which I've been playing; certainly those files sound better on the 
the Rio than they do on Winamp on the computers I've got around.
