Sorry you feel it so unlikely we might get genuine recognition in a major publication!

I think it comes as more of a suprise, since the tech review field has almost always given the nod to the iPod over the Karma, if the Karma was even reviewed. It seems this reviewer actually used the device for more then a matter of minutes.

It's similar to some of the reviews the empeg got. Some reviewers looked at it for a short time, and didn't have one long enough to enjoy having all their music at a touch of a button. So many people rated MP3 CD players above the empeg, because they could not see the value in the money spent on an empeg to avoid disc swapping altogther.

Congrats on the good review, and hopefully it is a much needed turning point with the public image of Rio vs Apple.
