Hi there from the UK.
Just bought a Rio Receiver from Tiger Direct with a rebate and brought it to the UK. $102 is pretty good! I installed it and all is well. I noticed that on the remote control, there is a button marked "Station" which is not illustrated or referred to in the manual. Does anyone know what it is for and whether it works with the current software? I'll get round to installing some of the alternative software in due course. Also, as I also have an Audiotron, will the two happily work together?

Thanks

It doesn't do anything with the supplied software.

Thanks Andy. That's what I figured. Will it work with some of the other software around and were the folks at Sonic Blue preparing for new software, hence the new remote control?

Cheers

No. The 'station' button has always been on the Dell remotes, and it's never done anything.

...though it was in preparation for internet radio support. It never happened (outside of the cambridge office) with the official software though.
