Just a note to those out there receiving the newest alotment of the 'last of the Riocars' from SonicBlue. I received mine yesterday and the remote worked for one day before the battery died. When it happened I initially thought the remote was busted because it completely ceased to work on the third button press of entering a search. It was the fact that my player has a sticker on it indicating that it was manufactured in May 2001 that made me immediately think of the age of the battery in the remote.
