As DIMD said in the wired article linked in your note, why would you want to be able to upload from the Rio to a PC? If I have a music CD and a PC with a CDROM (and what modern PC doesn't?), I can download the music on the CD to the PC then load it on my Rio (which BTW I now carry most of the time - something I haven't done with a radio or a cassette player for dozens of years). If I want to put the music on another PC, I hook up a CDROM drive and use the higher quality CD file. I guess if I was physically trading or swapping memory cards with somebody else with a Rio I could do it, but I'd probably borrow their CD instead or find out what url they got the music from and go there. Is faster and easier. Swapping memory cards also reminds me of swapping diskettes before networks. Why bother? Harry
