Good Points

This Player is extremely sturdy, and will survive being dropped


Bad Points

Not many, Good things outway the bad, though I would say the problem is that there is a slight ongoing noise, though VERY quiet, it can be heard if volume is turned to 1 or 2 out of 30. Kinda like a little "eeeeeeeeeeeeee" thing (it's hard to discribe)


General Comments

The Rio Cali Sport 128MB is a great portable mp3 player. I would highly recommend it. It has a great, easy to read LCD screen, that is protected by a rubberish ridge that goes around it, so if dropped, it doesn't scratch. I have dropped this player many times, including on my concrete garage floor, with no scraping done to the player or it's screen. It has rubber material protecting it, and is extremely stury. It also has expandable memory, because it's size, 128mb, is somewhat small. Another great feature is it's FM tuner. Somehow I think it uses the headphones as antennae, so I reccomend a bigger set of 'phones than the earbuds they provide you, for better reception. I really like the Rio Joystick, for easy <<, >>, ^, and [] (forward/fforward,back/rewind, play, stop)

I can't describe much about it, except to say it is a great mp3 player, and is klutz friendly in case you drop it. My recommendation is that you go to the player's website, http://www.digitalnetworksna.com/shop/_templates/item_main_Rio.asp?model=215&cat=35 (just copy and paste in your browser) or to amazon.com to read the more technical aspects of it. I researched MANY mp3 players, for at least 4 months, if not more, before deciding on this one, so I know many things about mp3 players.
