The slashdot crowd aren't ever satisfied. Something comes along which supports Ogg Vorbis and they bitch because it doesn't have a 802.11b built into it. So the next Rio product needs to be smaller than an iPod, contain a 80GB HD, have 802.11a/b/g, 1000mbit Ethernet, IEEE1394, USB2.0, FM/AM/UHF tuner, TV, kitchen sink and of course it must run Linux and you must be able to make them into a Beowulf cluster. And of course it must be sold for $9.95 because some kid can't afford anything more expensive on his daily allowance.

I'm just surprised about the huge backing for the Neuros. Okay, the thing is flexible and the actual main module itself is quite small but snap it into any of it's backpacks and it's massive! The 20GB one rivals a house brick for portability.

Usually I just read the top level stories on slashdot. The comments are usually absolute drivel and it takes way too long to weed out the good bits.
