I bought this player for my wife to use while exercising. It started having problems after about 95 days (after the warranty was over). I upgraded the firmware and the unit completely died. Support quoted me $175 to fix the unit. That price is $20 more than I paid for it new! My old Archos Jukebox 20 has been going for over 3 years without a single problem. The Rio Nitrus is a piece of junk! Spend your money on an Archos or an IPod instead!
