Pros: Affordable storage, great sound, easy to use menu interface, digital recorder built in
Cons: battery life gets poor, indiglo breaks, very big (physically)
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for great sound and many options, get it. But it's big, and breaks easily.

| dirkkleft's Full Review: Rio Rave MP2300 (40 MB) MP3 Player |
I bought this player, but to my surprise I didn't expect some things. All the options were there, and it sounded great, but it lacked in other areas. For one, this thing is HUGE! It's like a Coke can in diameter, no joke! Second, it makes a lot of noise when loading up each song and has slight loading times, varying on the size of the song. Also, my indiglo stopped working a month after I had the thing and I use it on a daily-basis and charge it nightly. The battery also slowed down, and only lasted about 2 hours before dying, and shuffles the songs when dying. Very annoying when listening to a good song! Also, the headphones were poor quality, and the microphone was too sensitive. The person has to talk 10 feet away for it to pick up without static. Anyways, bottom line.. the features are there. Sensory Science put everything there, but there are many downfalls which I see overshadow the good.
