Also featured on TODAY is the Rio Car MP3 player -- a removable in-dash digital audio player that holds up to 1000 hours of music. Not only can you carry your whole collection with you, but you can also choose exactly which songs you want to hear—either with the buttons on the faceplate or with its remote control. Rio Car can be used with existing tape decks, AM/FM radios, CD players and amplifiers using additional in and out ports. Also, Rio Car can be taken out and can be attached to a home stereo system via standard RCA connectors. Simply put together your favorite mixes on the PC and transfer them to the player using the included software, or sort through the music by title, artist, genre, album and year on the player itself. The display shows album and track name, artist and song length. Price: $1,199 for the 10 GB model; $1,349 for the 20 GB model; $1,599 for the 30 GB model and $1,999 for the 60 GB model.
