Functional and cheap, but not cream of the crop

by chang_daniel , May 08 '00
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Form Factor, Storage
If you have $$$ - spend it on a better player, if you are even buying an MP3 player it suggests that you have some $$ to spend. Check prices vis a vis 64mb players (the minimum storage - i believe you need) bc with an expansion card, the 300 is not as...

I have recently bought a Rio PMP300 MP3 player and am totally in love with it. The retail price may be $170, but after a little shopping, i ended up getting one for around $70. This was after i used the manufacture's $50 rebate which is in effect until...

Easy and cheap MP3 audio.

by mszatny , Apr 18 '00
Pros: price, functionality
Cons: No USB support,
I will never buy CDs or cassettes again!! I have used the Rio 300 for about 6 months now and appreciate it more now then I did when I first got it. Granted the onboard 32MB memory is too small, but add an additional 32MB smartmedia card and you have 2+...

Diamond Rio - A Shame To Modern Technology

by munkeeman53 , Jun 21 '00
Pros: Good Sound Quality
Cons: VERY little memory
I purchased a Diamond Rio PMP300 portable Mp3 music player and I was astounded by the quality of music that it plays, later I realized that it is not very much worth it to pay 150 dollars for something that can only hold 10 songs, when for the same price...

Diamonds are Forever

by ForbesII , Feb 07 '00
Pros: Good sound quality, cool looks, impressive durability
Cons: Short battery life
I bought a PMP300 mainly because of its great price ($100 after rebate), small size (comparable to a deck of cards), and its cool looks. I was most impressed with the durability of the unit--while skiing two weeks ago it unclipped from my belt and was...

by usdskater1 , Jun 08 '00
Pros: Don't have to pay for cd's.
Cons: Bad design, brakes alot, costs alot
About six months ago I decided to get a portable mp3 player. I went to my local electronic story and at the time the only one available was the Rio Pmp300. I purchased it for about $130 and was thrilled for about the first month and a half. Then one...

by deantakamine , Sep 22 '99
Pros: Compact, Cool looking,
Cons: Small storage, Sound quality
This little thing is great. I bought one about a couple of weeks ago and I am very pleased with it. It is so tiny and convinient. You can put in your pocket and no one will notice. It only takes one AAA battery too. And that lasted for about 12...

A decent buy

by DaveInACar , Apr 16 '00
Pros: Small, reliable, useful
Cons: Not enough memory, cheap headphones
The Diamond Rio 300 has 32mb of flash memory, which holds a half hour of music. It is expandable to 64mb with a $100 flash memory card (That's over an hour of high quality music).

Though it is expensive, it is useful if you have a lot of mp3s...

If you have a short music attention span, forget it.

by datagirl7 , Mar 30 '01
Pros: small, light, easy to take with you
Cons: doesn't hold much music, annoying to load music into
I got this soon after it came out. For a week or so I was thrilled. I could load music into this tiny little thing and take it with me.

But the problem was it only holds a few songs. And unless you are only on a short trip, you get sick...

Rio 300 1-10 = 7.5

by mk2000 , Aug 14 '00
Pros: small and light weight
Cons: not enough space on rio
You should buy this product if you are a music and computer freak. You can listen to your rio anytime and it is small and light weight. The Rio enables you to put mp3's from your computer to your rio. Then after you are done with that you can listen to...

Player is good, but tech sucks

by kwerkey , Jan 29 '00
Pros: Good sound, unshockable, easy software
Cons: Tech support is terrible, not enough memory
I got my Rio300 and never thought that I'd need an expansion card. It comes with 32MB onboard, and that seemed like enough for me. I took it to school with me all the time. I never had any problems with it, and the bundled software was easy to use....

Do I really need this?

by PhillipBB , Jan 20 '00
Pros: There nice
Cons: There rude
It's new. It's improved. It costs a small fortune. Do I really need the latest in hang on you belt gizmos to listen to music on? Thus far since the invention of the transistor radio, it seems that everyone had to have the latest in entertainment devices...

Love the RIO!

by ryin13 , Sep 23 '99
Pros: size, no cds
Cons: memory, fairly fragile
Talk about a great invention, this is now the only portable audio device that I use. It is not much bigger than a deck of cards and plus there are no tapes or cds to haul around and possibly get stolen. You can transfer songs from your cds by means of...
