 Diamond Rio 300

The very first Rio, started the mp3 player revolution - the one that was sued by evil record companies... It started life with 32MB of internal memory a later SE translucent blue Rio 300 had 64MB. Memory is expandable using smart media cards, however 32MB is the maximum it will recognize. The Rio 300 is not firmware upgradeable. The Rio 300 connects to the PC through a LPT parallel port. The Rio 300 only supports Mp3 files.   [View Manual]

MP3Man         [Screen Shot]
Description:  MP3Man is a full substitute for Diamond's Rio Manager. With MP3Man it's possible to download any type of files to the Rio player. Additional it offers the feature to upload files from the Rio player (it isn't possible with Diamond's Rio Manager). In this way you can use your Rio player to transport data from one PC to another. I have changed the name to MP3Man because I don't have the rights to the name Rio.
