I believe (and I may be wrong) that the NFS is read only. I'll check tonight. There is actally quite a bit of free mem on the rio. I have about 1 megabyte free with the database full and all of the buffers in memory. I actually increased the buffers from what rioplay had.

Another option that would be easy to implement would be to have the rio "save" the current database by allowing it to be grabbed via the web interface, and then have the spider read that. I.e. going to http://MyRioIP/database would grab a file which the user could save to disk somewhere.
