Oh. Cool.

Riot came out in the iPod timeframe and clearly the ball was dropped (mainly due to form factor - it has some nice software features).

There is one bit I'd like to rub about the riot, and I believe I mentioned it in another threat @ the time. I bought one, and I really liked it... except the desktop software. It has to be just about the WORST interface/core i've ever used. It locked up, took more system resources than I'd like, and worked like crap. It's why I took the riot back after paying $300 for it (the same price I payed for one of my backup empegs) I believe THAT was why the riot failed. I can't imagine a 'user' trying to make it work.. :/

It's my hope that pearl either mounts as a disk, or uses an emplode derivative.
