Perhaps it is time to be realistic... At 0.69$/share and with an EOL'd product (can the Central be far behind given this economy?!?) we're not likely to EVER see another Rio Car release from SBLU officially.

Selfishly(because I love techie gadgets), I hope SBLU comes out with the splashiest, sexiest, most awesome for your moniest, product ever and they become hugely sucessful.

But historically things do not look good.

I mean look at the latest release on their site:
- RioRiot (so far just a me-too in the category)
- Rio900 (OK, flash memory prices have fallen)
- RioVolt SP50C (a co-branded product ?!? right...)
- RioEX1000 (What were they thinking? GIVE US REPLAY RADIO at least)

I'm willing to be impressed... So bring it on!

Whew. Sorry about that. I know you guys in the UK are busting butt to deliver great stuff, I just wish you had more to work with. We will wait (our choice is...?) I'm sure glad we've got our empegs and the crew around here!
