I
own 3 RIO Carbons and one iPod. I find RIO user interface design to be
more intuitive than that of iPod. It integrates easily with Musicmatch,
which I use to manage my music. Over all very happy with Rio. Have not
had any problems in last 3 years or so. I would higly recommend Rio to
anyone who does not need more than 5-6 GB memory.

Considering the current prices for similar units, the Rio Carbon is well worth the money. It is easy to upload and operate. The case is cumbersome, but all in all a good unit.

I am not tough on my equipment but, If it doesn't have at least one dent in it, it is still in the box. It seems to be standing up to physical abuse so it is tough. Features, well first buy your own ear pieces. The one that comes with the player are killers. I was only able to download about 800 song, which isn't too bad but not as many as I was hoping for. I had the Rio Cali and loved it, except it didn't hold enough songs. With the Rio carbon you give up the radio tuner. I do like the fact that you can recharge the battery.

I had the older version of this mp3 player. I love the interface. I HATE ipods, so i was excited to see a larger version of my old one. however, it does random things like turn off in the middle of a song, or start a new genre. its odd. and that can be annoying when i can't access the player right away like when i'm riding my motorcycle. other than that, the player is excellent. easy to use, good buttons, various versions of the "lock mode" which make it convenient.
