MP3 Player from B&O
Has anybody bought this? Ever even thought about buying this? Only 128 MB of storage. It does come with the A8 headphones but still....never realized how expensive these things were.

That 1,5GB Rio is kinda cool, and the angry-looking, engorged nipple on top is...strangely captivating.
Is that a serial port on the back of the B&O?

I am the last person to question when something is "too" much. It is with deep regret that I have to say that I don't think I can manage more than a couple hundred songs for a portable device. 5000 songs? way out of my league trying to manage that many songs on a portable device. I think 1 GIG would satisfy my needs even at about a 190 KB/stream. The OGG standard does seem very interesting.

Would OGG work on a CLIE? If it does, it's time to dust that baby off and charge it up!</font>
